ALL: I will put on a pot of chilli while you are at the meeting. Raliegh, please send me the recipe or the link, I want it to be perfect. With articles like the following we will be in high cotton soon... ÿ<Picture: Company Of The Year: WorldCom> (12/30/97; 8:22 p.m. EST) TechInvestor It only took about eight weeks for a little-known long-distance company to re-arrange the telecommunications landscape and ensure that much of the Internet will be controlled from its Jackson, Miss., headquarters. Led by the folksy CEO Bernie Ebbers, WorldCom went on an acquisition spree late this year -- turning the fourth-largest long-distance company into number two, and promising to speed up the integration of voice and data services by combining traditional long-distance offerings with the digital technology of the Internet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now that Ebbers has assembled the pieces, he's on his way to redefining how we consume communications services. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ While AT&T searched for new leadership, Ebbers moved, first acquiring the networks of America Online's ANS Communcations and CompuServe, then Brooks Fiber in an important, but often overlooked, purchase, and finally MCI after outbidding GTE. Add the new parts to MFS Communications in 1996, and WorldCom has assembled the pieces to win the domestic market and make some noise overseas. Ebbers entrepeneurial moxie, his vision for a digital "supercarrier," his understanding of the Internet's place in our future, and his ability to act decisively all make WorldCom our choice for Company of the Year. WorldCom's motto is simple: "Voice, Data, Video." And now that Ebbers has assembled the pieces, he's on his way to redefining how we consume communications services. I cut off the rest but you get the picture. <eom> SG
