Bullshit. I've lived in Austrlia and the US. My wife has lived in Canada and the US. Australia and Canada are both fairly rich countries, so I think that we have experienced as fine a phone service as anyone in the world can claim to offer. I've had it up to here with all the flames about the US phone service, the US post office, and so on. They're as good as anything I or my wife have used, and in most cases better. Now if only they'd get around to breaking up the BOCs as well... -- Peter da Silva, Xenix Support, Ferranti International Controls Corporation.
