Paul,

One thing about all the TCGI takeover talk. Today's story mentions GTE (as well as T) as players who NEED a CLEC or two. If by no other reason than supply and demand, one has to bet that WCII will be taken out eventually.

The trading today included a few substantial blocks at the ask. Typical of market maker activity (read: not necessarily supply/demand driven) WCII traded downward late in the day although the money flow was extremely positive. All four of these blocks traded at 28 3/16.

On WCII's lack of enthusiasm about selling out. Do you think that is more of an obstacle to a takeover or a means to attract a better deal in a potential bidding war? (ie. hostile offer, white knight ups bid, etc.)

Nice to see the increased activity today, was getting a bit lethargic there for a while, huh?
