The SLC96's are telco property - I am pretty sure that I explained this
on this list at least once before - and we have no choice whatsoever in 
their use - they are just what the phone company uses to deliver dialtone
in fiber served facilities - period.

We have been screwed on this one by Bell Atlantic, and we are working
now on a way to get out of it.

This is your right, clearly; please do if it will make you happy.
