Andrew, <<Now I have a questions for you: 1) Imagine if you had the biggest, baddest, fastest bandwidth on earth. What would you do with it? Would you just sell it or license carrier access? Makes sense to help finance the build-out (which it has and more). But why stop there? ;) 2) Why hire some of the brightest stars in the telecommunications industry to work for your company just so you can have them manage the sale of fiber access on your network? ;)>> Can't argue with you here, the fundamentals of this company look great. On a related note, an earlier post noted the high private ownership of this company (Sorry don't recall which one). I guess I could view that both positively and negatively. On the positive side, Mr. Anschutz is motivated to see this company grow (as opposed to a CEO with no equity stake in the company they run) On the negative side, such small public ownership could make management indifferent to public shareholder concerns. Thanks for your thoughts.
