Default Re: Cingular to AT&T Explanation Video

There's only one minor, nit picky item that's incorrect but poetic
license forgives it. The deathstar logo didn't appear till 1/1/84, the
date of the breakup. Up till then, AT&T and it's affiliated companies
used the stylized Bell logo which remained available to the "baby Bells"
but not to AT&T. So, at the end of the video, where they show how AT&T
went to at&t, they should have used the Bell logo. But, like I said, the
graphic is funnier with the old and new deathstar and I'm REALLY picking
nits in what is a truly a brilliant piece of comedy that is dead on
accurate.
