Wow. They must not have any fiber near our facility. The folks running the digging operations are keeping Plastikote in business selling orange paint. There seems to be more orange than black on the blacktop -- all of it marked pretty clearly with the carrier name.
Same here. When work is done at 9th and Rockwell, behind my building, you will often see lots of markings in the middle of the road - generally, it'll be either AT&T, MFS or Ameritech's cabling being marked at that particular intersection.

At our location, it's Ameritech, Ameritel, Williams, Winstar, ICG, DIGEX/Intermedia, Prism, Time Warner, C&W, Worldcom, Nextlink and of course EnterZone and CMH-IX. We live in telco heaven though. I can throw a rock and hit all of the above from the roof of our NOC. With all the construction going on around here (additional fiber rings being built) I'm suprised they don't just bolt the steal plates to the road to save time. <grin> --- John Fraizer EnterZone, Inc
