Mitch, I believe the David Hurd post that you referred to was an excerpt from an old news release. Suggest you read the old news releases to verify my suspicions. RB

Mitch, I believe that I have read that news before. I think David's point was to remind everyone of our capablities and who provides that fiber for us. Look at the numbers that Frank knew he would need that long ago. Those lines were upgraded to an OC-24, 800 T1 lines, all running under our offices. HMMMM? Why would anyone need so much capacity and why would a company like GTE provide it for us for next to nothing? They know how much bandwidth we will need to run our Telephone Company and isnt it interesting how we have been positioning ourselves for years to be where we are today? But I guess Frank was just shooting from the hip for the last few years and some how all these pieces fell into place by accident at least if you go with the opinion of some who have shown a lack of knowledge on how this industry is structured, that is not a reference to you BTW. It doesn't surprise me that as we stand on the cusp of our vision and the fruitition of our plans all the bears come out of the woods. I wouldn't have it any other way. I said weeks ago, on a different Stock forum, and yes I know of several others and post to them, that I expected to see every gun in the aresenal come out to hold the stock back. And look who shows up. Mitch, you know what we have and so does anyone with the slightest understanding of Co-Location or Internet Telephony. If others do not understand the industry Franklin is in, they should not invest in this company. I would ask soemone to invest in Merck or Glaxo if they did not understand the pharm industry, why would this one be different? But I do see some clouds gathering on the horizon and by the time the Storm breaks it will be difficult to find an entry point below double digits, which will still be a bargain. I look at the knowledge and insight of the supporters of this stock and I see the lack of both from the bears. If I didn't understand this industry I would also be skeptical; however, I do understand it. I understand what Co-Location is all about. The words are there for everyone to find and the answers are staggering. People have said that living well is the best revenge. Mitch the only revenge I seek on the crass ignorance that has lately and not so lately come to this board is knowing that every time one of them reaches in their wallet and sees their FNET Calling Card, They will think of us and remember how wrong they were. And I will collect a lot of money from every phone call they make. Otherwise, their lond distance bills will be much much higher than they could be. <GGGGGGGGGGGGGGG>
