Sorry -- but neither of these paragraphs came from me. It looks like
something must be missing from the message. Did you intend to comment,
Brenda?
Betty Dawn
bhamilt@tenet.edu
[Moderator's Note: The quote in the first paragraph is from a message
submitted by Diane Seagle, who quoted Kevin Conde. The second
paragraph is Brenda's comment on Diane's message. Somehow Betty
Dawn's name got attached to Diane's quote in Brenda's message. Sorry
about the confusion. I believe that Betty Dawn had also commented on
Kevin's message, but Diane was quoting Kevin and not Betty Dawn. And we
thought that Universal Service was a complex issue!]
