Insulting

Isn't it demeaning to the legacy of the late, great Benny Hill to compare his brilliant, comedic genius to the ineptitude of a local phone company?

Actually, this pic goes very well with the story. This whole BT press release is a freakin JOKE.

Re: Insulting

A vast majority of press releases are. That's more or less their definition.

Re: Insulting

"One major exception is that BT will give competitors wholesale access to the network, something AT&T and Verizon have yet to do." Yeah right!!

That will never happen, and if it's forced, it will be the same circus act that the T-Com act of '96 brought to us.

Unless it has teeth, which the TA1996 Act didn't.

Of course, with our lobbyist/Washington DC situation, it's not going to happen. Back to your point #1.
