Kalkhoven's way is how you keep inflation in optics down.
Not trying to slim down JDSU/SDLI merger

Kevin Kalkhoven: All of this is relatively linear.
The one great thing about photonics is that you can make
one of anything. And most people can make five of something.


The real issue with photonics, is how do you make 10,000 of them a month?

We can even see today how to be able to do far greater levels of integration
than we currently achieve.
But right now the industry can only make one of them.
We may not have even got to the five of them yet,
and we're a long way from the 10,000 of them a month.


Let JDSU/SDLI go through.

People like Kevin will figure out how to lower costs.

The transistor has gotten cheaper and cheaper and cheaper
with NO assistance from Clinton/Klein/Boise trustbusters.


The last three should be sent to pick rice in the
field and do something useful
