Hmm.. let's look at a possible scenario here. Does this mean that if the PA PUC decides that Internet traffic is not local, PacBell could no longer provide internet services? I'm just stumbling through my logic here, but if access is ruled an interstate service, PacBell (and all the other Bells assuming the PUC's in various states took the same stance) would only be able to provide Internet service in lata? That would cause some "minor" political ramifications I would think...

I think the operative words in this article are "embarrassingly" and "stupid". - paul At 10:32 AM 9/1/98 -0700, James B. Slayden Jr. wrote:

Well, my comment to the PA PUC will be that their idea is stupid and ludicrous. They should pull their heads out of the ground and worry about the pathetic state of the communications services in PA (like rediculously high prices for various regulated services) instead of following the thoughts of a new commissioner that has no clue about the Internet. -David -- David Brouda VERIO Phone: 215/387-6305 3700 Market Street, Suite 307 Fax: 215/387-6302 Philadelphia, PA 19104 mailto:dbrouda@verio.net http://pennsylvania.verio.net
