The information displayed in many forums is often subjective and
not always accurate.  Obviously the MCI/Worldcom spokepeople were
overly optimistic in the CBS Marketwatch article, and also the
Reuters article, before they left on Friday.  As I mentioned the
longer the outage has continued the fewer people seem to work at
MCI/Worldcom.

Sorry Alan, I didn't realize that.  I won't post any more about
this outage.  Call 800-644-NEWS if you want to hear what's happening
with MCI/Worldcom.
