same as it ever was

Oh joy. Yes, let's put Humpty-Dumpty back together again, shall we?

It's not that I necessarily hate all big businesses (although, let's face it, corporations get away with murder, both literally and figuratively), but my negativity towards an SBC / AT&T merger is merely pragmatic. SBC can't tell their ear from their arsehole when it comes to sorting out my DSL vs. my local phone bill. So what disaster lurks when they become distracted with AT&T's international and corporate business?
