Very Scarry

These pollsters are doing nothing more than lying to the people they are calling and most of the people prob think that the truth lies in the questions.......

You would think that someone would try and get a cease and desist order as this is not a real survey but a political message with no truths.

I wish you guys luck...You have my vote but it don't count as I am in NC.....SCREW BELL SOUTH !

You are 100% correct. In fact, that is the total intent of a poll such as this - to suggest, by extremely loaded (and false and/or ridiculous) questions, that the project is bad. They have no intent at all of actually collecting information or statistics with this.

I grew up in Lafayette, and LUS was a great electrical company to have, great rates (cheapest in the state) and had great repair services.
I am all for them to beat the crap out of cox/bellsouth.

It's only a lie if you think it's a lie. These guys are just schlubs hired to read a script; not think about the text of what they're saying/asking. The lying slime are the ones that commisioned the "survey" and wrote the questions.

No, they collect numbers. They then try to say "we surveyed the area you want to serve and found that nobody wants it. You'd be wasting tax dollars on FTTH that could be spent buying books for the schools or paving the streets."

the guy reading the questions sounds like he reads at a 6th grade level!

Sad that companies have to resort to this because they do not want to build to compete
