Have no idea, but there should have been some consolidation and shot-gun marriages in the network business already last year. As it looks, the cost of consolidation just keeps going down and down. But it is kind of cuter and more romantic when two losers join their assets in hope for a better future, also helps with and for the cleanup process. At least "the Bell Lab" would not become "the Fourier Lab" Ilmarinen Who knows, maybe "the Popov Lab" if things continue?? webstationone.com --- In about 1900, Russian history sources say either 1899 or 1901, Popov's wireless apparatus was used in what may have been the first ever use of radio communications to help a vessel in distress. The battleship General-Admiral Apraksin was going down amidst the ice floes of the Gulf of Finland with hundreds of sailors and officers aboard, but Popov's radio system enabled them to contact Hogland and Kutsalo islands 45 kilometers away. Those wireless stations relayed the distress messages and rescue orders to the icebreaker Ermak. --- Now it is more a question of oil, pipes or tankers through the same archipelago, or Murmansk. Note, Kutsalo, and not Salo.
