Rocket Scientist: Any idea when this particular problem might get "resolved" and how? Is the US rollout dependent on a GW (or two or more) within the US to cover the NE and NW parts of the US? (Canada is not to be trusted?) When if ever may that happen? Who is working on "problem resolution" on this? Do we just wait.....and wait......and wait....like waiting for Godot (or however the guy's name was spelled) - any stage fans here who know French plays? Chaz

RS, I'm not sure that IT* wants the FBI monitoring all the calls IT puts through. Maybe IT will monitor all the calls that the FBI puts through instead. I don't want the FBI monitoring my calls. I find governments give me enough of a hassle without getting more control still. Okay, I know, the CIA and other spooks already monitor any bomb threats I might make. They use keywords such as bomb, capitalist imperial running dog, FBI, Inshallah, Timothy McVeigh, Ted Kaczynski, soci.niu.edu "Hey did you hear about Cindy Crawford and Mel Gibson", "I veel giff you ze nucleerr zecrets at meednight", then run it through a super computer to pop out any suspicious communications such as this one. Then they swoop on the hut in Montana or wonder how come the guy in jail for driving like crazy looks so much like the guy who rented the Ryder truck which blew up the ATF building in Oklahoma. Anyway, what's their run rate for catching these evil terrorists who are announcing their plans through the internet and over Globalstar phones? What do you reckon Pierre [we know you are out there - ve haf our spies vatching you]? Have you got a driver's licence yet? The net is closing! Do we REALLY need 1 million state employees all reading our mail and listening to our stuff? Yes, yes, I know, if we aren't doing anything wrong, we don't need to worry about spooks listening in. I'm sure Ollie North will only do really noble things with the gossip he could get. Wouldn't break any laws, lie or anything. Even to Congress. CIA and FBI employees, police and others get special training in heaven before descending to earth as young adults to slip on the uniform and act like saints in terrestrial form. Meanwhile, <Tejas Securities Group analyst Blake Carter said Leap has been undervalued relative to its peers in wireless. Some of those peers have been trading for well over $200 per pop, he said, while Leap has been around $125 per pop.> So, how many pops does Globalstar have. At $100 a pop, what do we get for Globalstar? I need a calculator with lots of digits available. Mqurice * IT = The Web in 10 or 20 years. "It" is going to be so big that it will be omnipotent and omniscient and omnipresent. Short for Infotech. IT will have a mind of IT's own. Jon, notice correct use of apostrophe.
