T-Mobile is the superset of all its predecessors and is the only remaining
entity. No problem there.

AT&T is the superset of all its predecessors, including Cingular, no problem
there either. The only difference here is that people have adopted
alt.cellular.attws as the group of choice, which was technically created for
AT&T Wireless, but, since there is no charter, was easily migrated to be for
Wireless by AT&T. In either case, alt.cellular.attws makes FAR more sense
than alt.cellular.cingular.

Just my 2 cents worth ... but at one time, a couple of silver pennies could
buy an aweful lot.
