Colonel Bill,

Well, you posted the writer's views. Here it is in again. Your answer.

Ciena recently held an upbeat conference call at the Supercomm 2001 trade show, but they steered clear from reaffirming their earnings guidance. This is in accordance with company policy, because Ciena prefers not to discuss earnings during the middle of their fiscal quarter, but coupled with the JDS Uniphase warning, many investors are left with unanswered questions and concerns about earnings during the next few quarters.

My comment of CIEN maintaining guidance came from Mark C's post. I guess the truth of the matter is that they haven't said anything which makes my hope for some comment from them even more anxious. Given the fact that a glut is so overwhelming that the NY Times is reporting it, I have trouble believing that CIEN won't be affected. Don't most of their revenues still depend on building out long haul, Jack?
