[1st-mile-nm] Qwest Comm. Strategic Update

[Steve Ross]

They get it at Qwest. They just don't think they can afford 
it, and they are unwilling to explore partnerships with 
government to raise capital.

British Telecom CEO said the same thing last year. But using 
a technique called "reporting," we found out what company 
insiders really were saying to each other.

Verizon will end up overbuilding the most dense parts of the 
Qwest footprint once it finishes its own service area in 
2011. The CLEC from Hell. Bye-bye Qwest unless they change 
strategies.
