And what I got was lots of stories about how bad "my colo just got bought 
by $BIGCO" can suck.  For which, thanks... but I already knew that.  I had been
more interested in whether people had opinions about *the buyer*, Knology,
which might counteract my personal, but anecdotal, bad impression.

No one actually appears to have anything specifically bad to say about them,
so I guess that's good.
