With all this leapfrogging and obsolescence that's happening, it just makes me a bigger believe in fibre optics. Period. That's my final answer. BTW, triple eights is nothing. I'm going for a grand. (g) rose

LOL, el -- the trip eights ... just fell into it. Well, I'm not sure that as investors this means the end of technology. As employees I know that they're working their asses off just to make a living. And always under the cloud of uncertainty of layoffs. But the key as investors is long..... long dong silver <g> ...... with the big ones <g> ..... IMO. The survivors. Many people I met in Atlanta, who were the only people I've met to date via Cyberspace investing board initial communication, have lost everything they own this year. The main reason is the Feds. Now that so many old econ companies are laying off thousands, should be enough to satisfy, eh? So we get a rate cut. In hindsight, we'd probably all have been better off in the smokestacks with our hard-earned savings. Well, hell ... I don't want to invest today in CAT, do you? Takes too long. <g> 'b-i-a' ###
