iirc, around y2k there was lots of talk about all the "dark fiber" that was already laid. and post bubble there was lots of speculation about how this dark fiber would likely never get lit before it was obsolete. two questions: has this fiber capacity been used up to the point that more long haul trunks need putting in place by such means as fiber in gas? i thought the real problem of broadband was "last mile." how does this help? the same locations that aren't served by broadband today are frequently the same places that aren't served by gas pipe either and for the same reason: low density of consumers. gb
