Bear in mind that the financial situation at Qwest is bad.
Isn't that partially due to deals with Enron on which they misrepresented sales numbers?
We certainly know from experience that a major financial upheaval can affect operations at least indirectly (loss of management attention, budget cuts, deferred maintenance, cutbacks in monitoring and response systems, etc.). On the other hand, it's not a good idea to overreact to news like this. So I would proceed with due caution concerning Qwest transit. As a wise person once said, don't put all your routes in one pipe.
I wouldn't touch Qwest, based on the Enron issue, if nothing else. -- Steve Sobol, Proud Native of the Great Frozen City of Cleveland, Ohio http://www.Cleveland.OH.US/ http://www.TravelCleveland.com/ http://www.LakeCountyOhio.org/ (Where the Snow is Cold but our Hearts Aren't!)
