Phil,

My guess the merger offer for GTE from BT/MCI will be around $55-$60
range. BT/MCI merger is a better deal for Wireless than a merger with
ATT. Because if the final suitor is ATT, Wireless will be at least
partially spun off(B-Side properties). But if it is BT/MCI, Wireless
will be OK.

The other possibilities are:

1) BT/MCI and BEL/NYNEX
2) SBC/SPRINT and FRANCE/GERMAN TELCOMs.

I have a sense that BellSouth is not going to play BIG now. They are
very satisfied with their STRONG regional play. And Ameritech maybe
the same as BellSouth. But BEL/NYNES may take Ameritech if the price is right.

The current GTE CLEC and BBN strategy is interesting. But it is going
to be a long and very tough uphill battle depending on what LEVEL of
"CLUELESSNESS" the people in charge are. According to what I've heard
about the LEVEL they are at so far, we need to PRAY really hard for
them and US!!! <G>
