Valuespec, I am going to break my resolve to not respond to you for this one last post. In regard to the WCOM deal, if you would read the informative posts here, instead of thinking of yourself and how people would perceive you, you would have noticed that I posted the basic terms of the WCOM deal as defined by Helen. It is for the right to place equipment at WCOM locations, for which FTEL will pay rent, and the use of their backbone network. Is that clear enough? Speculation on how easy it is to arrange this kind of a deal with WCOM is irrelevant. If FTEL follows through and sets up a "phone network" with this minimal agreement, that is all that matters. Only time will tell. If you have actually done some DD and called the WCOM representative, then please let us know any relevant information you have personally gathered that may contradict what I have just said. In regard to vindicating your words, I do not know how to get through to you, but people on this thread do not care about whether you are right or wrong. We have invested our money. If the company does not succeed, then we will all deal with our disappointment and frustration (and even possibly loss of money). Believe me, the last thing we will be thinking about is whether you were right or wrong. If the company succeeds and we all walk away with nice profits, again, there will be no one spending one minute of time thinking of you. Many of us have already taken some nice profits on this stock. So, right or wrong, our bank accounts are happy. Regardless of how right or wrong you are, we have already won! I am sincerely requesting, for the sake of many readers here who are unhappy with the direction this thread has taken, if you must continue to post here, please just post the information you have. We are interested in facts, not reading you prove if you are right. Change your presentation style, and if you provide factual information from DD, and not just rehashing what you have already said over and over again, then those of us on this thread who have invested in this company, but not fallen in love with it, might bother to read your posts. Whether you believe it or not, I am not being one sided here. Many people are disgusted with all the garbage that has been posted here lately. Show us what you are really made of...become a contributing member of this thread with NEW DD, without your own personal agenda. People here are not stupid. We understand the possible agendas of some that are long on FTEL also. We honestly do not need anyone to warn us or tell us where to place stop losses, nor do we need anyone to tell us to keep buying and that the price will be $200. I apologize to all readers for taking up time and adding to the "garbage" here. Valuespec, if you have a reasonable response, please reply by email or private message. Let's start to keep this thread for information on the company only. Thanks. Judith
