Well let's see... Bell Titanic says they can't make any money cause the 
internet users are tying up phone lines...hmmm. I guess that means that bell 
will have to spend a LOT more money upgrading their switches. Lower profits, 
pissed off stock holders sounds like a drag. The business man in me is 
sympathetic to the bell situation but the bottem line is the bell monopoly is 
in it's twilight. The actions of the bells are now more and more desperate. 
Does any one realize that Bell Atlantic over charged thousands of customers 
and then reported them selves to the authorities with one of these "we were so 
bad we should be punished" deals, and then for penance proceded to deploy 
numerous T-3 lines (45 Mbps circuits) into schools and colleges for full 
motion video conferencing applications. They wanted to get the schools hooked 
on the 45 Mbps video and then phase in the charges. What the hell??? Should be 
illegal!!! Bell is trying to increase their position in these days of de-reg 
by trying to establish bullshit tarrifs and sleazy stratigic moves like the 
video circuits. 

I'm sorry this is running on but if Bell thinks they can drum up 
support/sympathy from the public or from ISPs by sending out emails on the sly 
they're out of their minds.

"Bell Atlantic...We don't care, we don't have to."
