Frank - I am surprised by the ruling in the Portland Case. The issue of opening up access would seem to belong to the jurisdiction of the FCC, not the local authorities who have decided to use the franchise approval as a wedge to force ATT/TCI to open up access. If ATT lets this go without an appeal, they are opening themselves up to this kind of ruling from municipalities all over the country. It certainly seems like an issue for national policy rather than local policy. I do remember telling you, at an earlier date, that the issue of franchise transfer might be a difficult one for ATT.
