You know, I don't know if this GBLX deal is going to go through. They have to pass the regulatory hurdle, and it seems to me they are violating some of the telecom act. They may need to diverse some assets before this is allowed, and this could be their undoing depending upon what they have to unload.

Also I hope Qwest does not team up with a bell but with a Worldcom or AOL. In fact, since MSFT is feeling like Gordon Gecko buying up everything related to telecom, it could be that they buy it up. They could use a first class fiber network. I wouldn't mind some MFST stock.

Regardless, whether we get bought out or we stay independent, we will make good money with this one.
