Hi Dale, Thanks for dropping by. Your articulate views on the telecom scene are very much appreciated, and should you hang those 2-3 additional articles on you website, please make a note of it here so I can pursue the rest of the story. :) As far as your view that the most robust players will engage in a consolidation of networks over a period of time, I'm completely in agreement. As an afficionado of market history, I'd suggest that the roll-ups will continue for at least 10 years if not decades beyond. Here's an interesting page describing exactly this sort of consolidation, in the RR industry for over a century, and still on-going: xmission.com Plus ca change, la plus l'meme chose, n'est pas? Again, thanks for stopping by our virtual water cooler. <g> Cordially, Ray :)
