Furst rule of dealing with $CABLECO =97 If you don=92t like the answer =
you get on this phone call, redial. The next person will probably give =
you a different answer. Certainly you can almost always get the answer =
you are looking for (even if it=92s wrong) within 5 calls if you are =
that patient.
