exactly. the customer is paying verizon their bill each month. verizon should be keeping the copper up. There are a lot of folks in Verizon territory (myself included) who won't see fios or any other fiber to the whatever for several years more. It doesn't take that much to replace a section of copper cable. It's getting those 2nd or 3rd lines to let go of that money to keep the plant up. Get rid of those bad sections and temporary (hah) wraps.
