I read a Dow Jones report entitled:
WorldCOM-MFS merger Spells Trouble for Baby Bells
WorldCom (still called WilTel by most Internet folks) bought MFS for (at
Friday's stock prices) $47.78 per share in stock. In reaction, WorldCom
stock is down, MFS stock is up.
From an operations standpoint, the options of who to work with are getting
narrower...

LDDS WorldCom? Could be... I got this second-hand from a non-techie
who was listening to the noon news on NPR, so I have no idea what he
_actually_ heard. :-) That would at least make sense, even if it's
not particularly auspicious.
