Personally, I think it should come right out of the stock dividends... but that's me.
You'll never be a CEO with such backwards thinking :p]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19810550 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 00:30:19 EDT Re: Cost? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19809656 KrK :

Don't worry, it'll show up under "battery recovery fee". So you'll still be on the $34.99 plan technically.
Negative. They would never be so clear. It would be something like "Public safety mandate recovery fee" or "Liability offset cost recovery fee" or something to make it look like it's another Government fee or tax.

Personally, I think it should come right out of the stock dividends... but that's me.

That should be about a $1.00 raise per customer.

"Stored Power Cost Recovery Fee" sounds much vaguer and more likely to be used. :p]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19805769 Tue, 15 Jan 2008 13:14:55 EDT Re: Cost? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19805331 Camelot One : When you think about it though, with the current state of our civil courts, $2.5M to replace them all is a small price to pay. If even one person gets a cut on their pinky from a piece of flying debris after one explodes, they'd be paying out 10 times that on the lawsuit.

That should be about a $1.00 raise per customer.

This is not including overtime, battery disposal, and other installation issues.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19804804 Tue, 15 Jan 2008 10:53:07 EDT
