My WinStar account rep used to follow and occasionally contribute to this forum. Actually, that's how he found me and eventually signed us up. My impression is that he is way too busy now to keep up with tracking this board. I don't think WinStar discourages employees from talking about the company but would not be pleased to see any company confidential information out here. If I were an employee I would probably just lurk.

Steve, Ali and All - I saw a comment on AoL Market day tha the new president of Korea almost passed out when someone gave him a full briefing on the true state of the problems in Korea. Well ( not in common with two other stocks that I follow) ....... WCII has NO CUSTOMERS IN KOREA or JAPAN or any other Asian country. It has no accounts receivable from any of those countries so it doesn't have to write any of them off. We can go to bed tonight and think happily about that and the fact that sooner or later some of the fund managers of telecom or tech stocks having upset the retirement plans of millions of Americans by having invested directly or indirectly in Korea, Indonesia or Japan will look around and see that WCII is a fantastic growth opportunity in the biggest economy in the World and doesn't have to move one inch outside it to make their investors very happy.
