Q: When did Global Crossing announce they were buying Telergy? A: They didn't announce that. Since Mr. Annunziata has taken the helm, the company does everything it can to prevent investors from finding out what the company is doing. I found this in The Wall Street Urinal online Dow Jones Newswires -- June 29, 1999 DJ Early Antitrust Clearances Approved By FTC WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--The following is a list of companies or persons that the Federal Trade Commission has cleared of antitrust concerns in connection with the proposed purchase of assets or common stock: (Source - Federal Filings Business News) Name of acquiring person or company Name of entity with assets or stock acquired Global Crossing Ltd. Telergy Inc. I think this is the company: telergy.net What are they buying? the network? the whole company? part of the company? Don't you think any normal company would has issued a press release? I'm sure calling Jensen Chow at 310-385-5283 will be a complete waist of time, but i'll try anyway.
