You guys are missing the rally! Perhaps we should rename this thread "Cary's Blood in the Street". He might like that. Mike

Ian, Re: Cary and your points Let's just agree to disagree on this one. Too much time has already been wasted. Brian

I am reposting the "infamous" post below. On a second reading, it seems pretty innocuous. The only words that may not be described as neutral are "hand waving" and "amazed." If John thought that "hand waving" referred to him instead of the article, he certainly fired back enough to ease his "pain." More hand waving. How many bilions will it take to bring broadband to everyone? Who is going to make the investment and when? What percent increase of the internet will result from broadband availability? I am amazed that the only quantitative data in the article talks about stock prices.
