You bet, because evidence is overwhelming that it really works, and that

The result of massive government interference and mismanagement.

A minor blip on the radar. What matters are things like the stock price
and the ability to raise capital.

You are of course free to make whatever claim you want, no matter how
ridiculous.

That would probably mean more if it came from somebody who didn't still
refer to "Cingular" on a regular basis.

Still here? You're going to miss out on your consolation prize if you

No consolation prize required. Basking in the knowledge of never being you
is all the prize I need.

Good thing you're so easy to satisfy, because you've absolutely no hope
of such an elevated state.

1. Your well earned reputation clearly points to the fact that you are
as clueless as they come.
2. I prefer to post fact and not baseless opinion, which would put me
many rungs further up the ladder than you.
3. I don't rely on irrelevent googled material to make up the great
majority of my posts.
4. When I do use googled material, I actually read it before posting
it.
5. I'm not a technology dinosaur like you that should have been extinct
a decade ago.
6. Unlike you, I do not believe in the tooth fairy, the Easter Bunny or
extended range GSM. You should leave all these fairy tales for the
chilfren to play with.
7. I decided a long time ago to focus my attention on a single area of
expertise, whereas you have admitted to know a liitle bit of this and a
little bit of that and not a lot about anything.
8. I've worked hands-on with the technology for the great portion of my
professional career. I am called to provide technical and ops SME
review insight on a large list of operational variables to a number of
large wireless corporations. Your use of Google to amass your knowledge
has caused you to obtain false information or incomplete information
that ultimately makes you look like a clueless newbie idiot.
9.I do admit defeat- you can't define the word, much less use it in real
life application.
10. I don't demonstrate a blinded love affair with any carrier, where
you demand that Cingular is the solution to everything.
There ya go, Novice- ten reasons why it would be impossible for me to
use the elevator to go all the way down to your basement-level education
and reasoning skills
You can now go back to your hole and crawl in for the night. Yhe
predators can sense your weakness.

It comes quite naturally, particularly where the logic-challenged are
concerned.
