George.....your posts are GREAT! Keep up the good work.......about time someone spoke up on this stock that has languished among the hype that some have posted for many moons. I for one am long on DCTC but am beginning to take heed as to the final direction we might be taking. Bill....lurking again and posting only to clear my throat!

George, I applaud you for asking the tough questions. Keep up the good work. For this forum to be "open" it's important to have input from people like you. It might be fun for us to be on the same team, but regardless it's expensive to lose. Go Easy Mark

<<<<I believe it smacks too much of a 'good ol boy' system to have a handful of people always talking to Joe and maybe, or maybe not, reporting back here.>>>> GE, Maybe all it will take to eliminate the 'good ol boy' system is for one more person to make the extra effort to talk to Joe, in other words do a little DD on their own, then report back. Best Regards

George, You say "I can visualize where we might end up with a bunch of worthless little companies and, hence, a bunch of worthless stock". I agree we have to be careful here. I believe it was also you who said a couple of days ago that we need synergies between the various components if the whole of what we're building is going to be greater than the sum of the parts. [I know the converse was true with the parts greater than the whole six months ago but IMO those rule no longer apply]. To date, we felt we were seeing synergies begin to emerge even though we won't see the 'big picture" as perceived by Joe until we get the newsletter. We felt CardCall Canada could use the WorldPass switch, WorldPass also provided a call-back gateway into So. America, we had gateways providing access to Europe, switches within Europe, CyberFax gateways between NYC and SE Asia, etc. Without too much imagination, people could begin to see a big picture. I hope something along these lines is what is communicated in the newsletter. Where I think we have to be careful is letting an IB firm gather several smaller telecom companies (ISPs or whatever) that don't fit together -- even though the sum of the individual revenues total the "right number" (somewhere between $100M and $250M). We don't want a hodgepodge -- we need a carefully architected, synergistic system. Some people can do this successfully (e.g., Bernie Evers of WorldCom, Clark McCleod (originally) of MCI) and others can't. Bottom line: I hope Joe is getting some high-powered telecom consultation or we might not end up with something very marketable. "Anybody" with enough cash could pick up little companies that aren't synergistic. JMHO. Dan

George E, I enjoy your tough questions and support you. Boards that are all positive are a contrary indicator to me. I.E. this board was all positive right before the "waves" hit back a few months, and its been downhill in price since. Not saying the company has not improved... apparently it has from all the aquisitions. Anyways..just wanted to voice support for your questions. I dont find you negative.. I find you critical and wondering why the heck your investment has dropped 20-30% in a few months. Keep it up..hoping the last "invasion" is done by Sept 1998. Mark
