After this merger, the incumbent ILEC in a huge market area will also own the only real CAP (remember Brooks and MFS?). Isn't it bizarre that it is possible that a regulated LEC will also own an unregulated CAP, which currently competes (vigorously, I might add) with the LEC?I entirely agree with you. But don't you think its a little bizaire how they know talk about this big and scarry monopoly after loosing bid for MCI themselve? Or do you really think we'd have been any better of if it was Qwest (another ILEC BTW) that bought MCI instead? -- William Leibzon Elan Networks [email protected]
