Have all of you that are complaining about Joe Nacchio listened to or read what he's said. His key is long term growth. I think investors who let him make a lot of money for them should have enough faith in him and the company to support what they're doing. If anything is to happen with Bell South, long term, I for one would prefer a merger of equals to an acquisition. In the interview he indicates that Bell South was well aware of what Qwest was doing. I don't believe the FCC would agree to an acquisition of one Baby Bell and a Long Distance Carrier by another Baby Bell, but a merger, especially one which the non Bell name survives, seem a lot more palatable. Don't bet that Bell South doesn't see it this way too. If Qwest is successful in this acquisition and a merger were engineered in the future, I think Nacchio would be a strong candidate to head the merged entity. Give Joe a break, let's see where this goes long term. It's only investors thinking they understand the business better then Nacchio and company that's sent the stock down. Take a long term view and the stock will be setting new high's again in no time at all. Gary
