"More fiber than the telcos". I think you left off the sarcasm tags. There was no sarcasm in my statement, it's entirely sincere. The error in your judgment is where you think I'm somehow praising cable companies. | |

| Re: It's so hard to read the words that come.. No error in my judgment. You claimed the cablecos were "defenseless". Given the attack ads the cablecos run against the telcos, I just assumed your comment was supposed to be sarcastic.

No, I said that they attacked a faceless concept rather than an entity that could defend itself. | |

"Entity", not "concept". And your sentence construct suggests that the "entity" is the cable industry.

"Entity", not "concept". And your sentence construct suggests that the "entity" is the cable industry. Then which provider was supposed to speak up for "the cable industry?"
Better yet, why not let me explain what I meant rather than you? Only one of us has my brain. | |

| Re: It's so hard to read the words that come.. Erm; then say what you mean, using the correct words for the concept.
I am not a mind reader, and I can't guess at what alternative definitions you intend for the words you misuse.
