RE > The H&Q report spells it out.> that propagda sheet don't
tell me anything, it's hog wash.
Poor ole RBOCs, crying all the way to the bank, all the jazz is
over who feels like their hog is being gored..
RE >subsidizing the ISPs; and the phone system is being severely overburdened.< good heveans "subsidizing" a lawers spin word,
do you mean they are paying the "ISPs" my local one payes a
$3600 phone bill..he is not using a third of the lines..but
he has to pay for them any way..just to have them in reserve,
thats right they'r not even hot..but he has to pay..the crap
about overburdened is just that..and a scare tatic.
I'm no expert but I didn't just fall off some cabbage truck,
they never had it so good..now they want more.
