FYI: "Ride the light." Qwest is advertising heavily these days in the Seattle market. The ads are name-recognition things that don't explain anything about services offered. I've seen them frequently at all times of day during local commercial blocks. The ad goes something like this: Camera focuses on a clear light bulb in the middle of the screen. Hammer head drops in from right. Hammer explodes into bits as it strikes the light bulb. Voice over [not exact quote, but close. It's actually a two-sentence script here]: "The future of the internet is available today." Qwest logo replaces light bulb: "Ride the light"
