You may be right on DT but there is more out there. That 10 % could come into play. FON doesn't have the bandwidth. I think a DT -FON-QWST combo is possible. Would you consider a DT-FON combo a major player without bandwidth ? There are so many possibilities. BT isn't sleeping either. I think we will end up with FRO and USW because GBLX is a small company. Think about it . What does it have for the shareholders of FRO and USW to evaluate ? IF GBLX does get the two, QWST will keep on motoring. If QWST gets the two.........GBLX has no where to go. It really has little now. We have a network ready to pop. They have an undersea line that T built for them. Or ,something like that. Compare the revs and earnings of both GBLX and QWST. QWST is clearly ahead. Got to be honest. I put an order in for GBLX at 46. It dropped to 47. Broker asked me what I wanted to do. I held out for 46. It jumped to 62. It's down again, but this FRO ......USW ....thing allowed me to look at it. I think GBLX is a wild ass gamble. I do believe that the insiders will dump it. OK, what did I do ? Bought GBT. What happens ? GBLX buys fiber from GBT. I think there is way more going on than the FRO-USW deal. All the talk about Nacchio being an ego driven person etc etc. Well, Phil A is doing it with Joe N. The whole thing is exciting. Still wonder what QWST is going to do with ARTT. Probably sell it if they get USW. Well, maybe not. We need last mile in other areas. ac
