<<AOL can get in cable distribution anytime they want. They wisely don't want.>>

Ahhaha, in reading your post's this seems to be a common thread in your thinking. Why is it that you feel that they (AOL),can easily get involved with BB cable but rightly do not want to be? I have a difficult time seeing this after considering most things I have read thus far on the issue. Why would they be fighting so hard for open access if they don't want cable distribution? Though I agree with many ideas you have, this one makes me crazy. AOL seemingly has everything to gain with cable access and much to lose without. Without BB AOL is nothing more than a children's electronic 'kid connection'. Once any serious user goes online via BB, they will never go back to dial up. Please expound on your reasoning if possible....

Thanks in advance.
