| Re: Gosh, what a surprise said by RichNice  :Qwest/Embarq? Or Qwest/Century Tel? Neither are too sexy when you think about it. Hmm. I've been thinking that Embarq and Century Tel should merge, and maybe throw Alltel and/or TDS in there too. Basically a merger of all the major rural telcos.

| No kidding. The telco's are doing everything they can to buy each other up and stiff arm the small ISP's to the grave. All thanks to our wonderful government for turning a blind eye to the buyoffs.
The FCC has become a dangerous wild animal that is infected with a dealy virus.
In the next few years expect only a hand full of Wireless, Telco, and Cable companies. Then the rate hikes and excuses to burn the consumer will begin.
What happen to the Great Generations this country was founded on? | |
