Did either of you actually *look* at the search results?

Lets take a quote from the first result:

OK, let's google for THAT.

http://www.google.com/search?q=overbuild+network+contra+costa+county

No data, just references back to the initial press releases.  I can't 
find any data that the overbuild *actually took place*.


Your lmgtfy link's search finds 5 year old press releases about 
discussions to PLAN overbuilding in various locations.  What I want are 
the Names of Specific Locations (in the SF Bay Area) where such 
overbuilds are currently in place and serving customers.
