Kevin: I seriously doubt it...LVLT just gets a slight mention... not that every "little bit" doesn't count. IMHO the recent offering exposed the company to institutions that MAY not have been following it before. As we (on this thread) know - IT IS A GOOD STORY. Jim and his cohorts are a fine team..."we are with the right folks"................... (been taking on a little AGRPB). Best to you, Don

Kevin - Nobody I know really talks about Level 3 because their not one of those hip internet stocks. They have strategic alliances with several key companies - GST, NextLink, Cybertel, the list kind of goes on. Time Warner has entered into a 20 year contract to lease communications conduit from Level 3. I bought the stock in the high 30's about a year ago and the stock climbed to over 80 and then split in the 70's I believe, and now it's back up there. Nothing that's going to get major headlines - just consistent growth. Here's the best part - the parent co. is a construction comapany utilizing their manpower and knowledge to build the first national IP network, and they have proved it before with a previous company they started called MFS Communications, which we know as WorldCom now. They are still essentially in the development stage and they had somewhere around $6+ billion hard cash to play with.
