WOW. Some one bought 172,000 shares at 11:57.58 this am. In one block at 111 5/8. I think this stock is under serious accumulation and this little blip down may not last long. I know day to day trading is not discussed much here, but that trade just stood out on my screen. If this info is not appreciated on this board let me know. Dan D

Frontier (FRO: news, msgs) fell 2 11/16 to 56 3/16. Global Crossing announced in March that it would buy Rochester, N.Y.-based Frontier for $11.2 billion. US West and Global Crossing officials could not immediately be reached for
