Hook and line, if not sinker
| | It was the soul of this company that responded to the 9/11 attacks. We helped get the New York Stock Exchange and world financial markets on their feet by replacing a grid the size of Cincinnati in five days, and then bringing thousands of Verizon workers into lower Manhattan to get businesses humming and residences communicating again in the ensuing weeks. We achieved a telecommunications rebuild unlike anything ever seen before, and under horrendous circumstances. You can't do that without soul. |
| | It is the DNA of this company that ensures your dial-tone is there 99.99% of the time, come ice storm, hurricane, or flood... |
| | It is the vision of this company to do for the Internet what the internal combustion engine did for transportation by bringing future-proof fiber optics right into millions of American homes... |
| | No time to respond. Just to give CZ props for coming back at me with hard evidence. Thanks! |
| | But look for more tonight or tomorrow. Needless to say, I have a LOT to say here, and highly welcome real dialog on a pile of important topix. Especially that last fiber optic one. |
