Re: Oh my! What a surprise!

Howdy Stray and dbarc,

I must agree with you on this, but there are some similarities that make me think that at least Covad will survive. Perhaps all this turmoil will cause Covad to think a bit "smarter" in how they do things. Perhaps they'll dump some deadwood along the way. All the better. I can tell you that since the first layoffs, our service (from the ISP side) has actually IMPROVED. Strange, but true. We've been getting better resolution times on TTs, and now have a human being that can answer questions that do not have standard answers.

Hehe, I think the deadwood already dumped them. The DLECs should sue for theft of services or file criminal charges for conspiracy to commit fraud. Many of these ISPs (PSN comes to mind) had NO intent to repay the debt they incurred. They used that debt to gather more money from subs, who they intended to defraud. Kind of a Ponzi scheme.

And the US should send the bill for the Gulf War to Saddam! Wishful thinking....
