*please back up your statement that: GBLX owns about 42% of all underwater fiber on the planet (world capacity = 62,999,511 equivalent DSO circuits, GBLX = 26,407,973 equivalent DSO circuits).*

Source is the Federal Communications Commission and GBLX itself. The FCC provided known and planned capacity for all carriers and GBLX provided capacity of its projects.

If you would like to see the implications of this on a revenue basis, send me a private message with e-mail address & I will ship you an excel spread sheet. In that 'sheet I have surveyed going rates for bandwidth in various parts of the world as well as incorporated historical pricing erosion to arrive at a given areas revenue potential.

In short I collected the data, I do not think you will find it in any one place.

The numbers are quite incredible from a valuation basis. :-)

We have traded below the collar for a number of days. If I remember correctively, 15 days below was a relevant number as far as the mathematics of the merger were concerned. How soon will we see the media machine hit full stride to try to budge this thing north? Have a good weekend, Tim
