YOU SAID - "However, T will need to post some solid numbers next quarter based on sales and not job cuts or retirees. Wall Street and shareholders are no longer ignorant to the fact that just making quarterly earnings projections isn't the bottom line...they want sales creating it---not just cuts in head count. This is why AT&T took a hit last quarter even though they hit their earnings. People are not schmucks to the creative methods of accounting."

AS IF YOU ARE IN FAVOR OF THEM NOT IMPROVING THEIR BOTTOM LINE THROUGH DOWNSIZING AND THEN IN THE SAME POST YOU SAY -

"If they can shed their monopolistic mentality (which in my mind means getting rid of a lot of AT&T dinosaur employees still living in the T glory of yester-year), they have a shot. They must adopt a totally different attitude. Armstong is a start but he's only one person---albeit the Top Dog. If they stay the present course, T will be dramatically different from its current state in a short period of time."

APPARENTLY YOU DON'T FAVOR DOWNSIZING AND YOU DO FAVOR DOWNSIZING. DID YOU GET OUT OF T WHEN THEY ANNOUNCED THEIR EARNINGS THE LAST QUARTER AND THE STREET DIDN'T LIKE THE WAY THEY DID IT OR DID YOU HANG IN THERE FOR THE HAUL OR DON'T YOU HAVE ANY T AT ALL?
