Beacuse MFS screwed up but making a MAE-[insert-any-town-with-population-over-500,000] and never marketed it right. MAE-NY could have been HUGE, but there is only 0 providers (maybe 1?) in there now. At 05:44 PM 7/15/97 -0700, Keith McCallion wrote:

Hello,

I'm curious about MAE-LA. It has the potential to be quiet big, but it never really kicked off. We were considering linking there, but with only 13 other providers, we decided not too.

Does anyone know why MAE-LA never really kicked off?
