Who's buying who? . . .

If L3 is buying CL, we might live.
If CL is buying L3, we're F'd.

Depending if L3's IT staff does not end up in the insane asylum while trying to merge CL's network with theirs.

I was being rhetorical. In an article I read here years ago when CL was starting its campaign of sucking up providers, it said that every marked they go into, they trash it. Am there and am seeing it. Supposedly United Bank of Denver and Wells Fargo "merged" and it was actually UBoD that bought Wells, I knew insiders, for their image. Now Wells is in deep for using the UB playbook that got UB in trouble in the first place thus needing a new image. That's what I am saying. Who's gonna run the show/"on top"? If CL we're screwed.
