Re: Weak article

I agree, it sounds like the writer there doesn't have a clue as to how local phone service works. The next district I hear of that has SBC and Verizon to pick from will be the first.

To an extent, I think this goes to the entire article. In general, people will probably not have more than two or three of these providers available for their purchase, if that. So how much good is it, really, to know that Cox scored higher than Comcast, when all you can get is Comcast? Definitely not like when they compare pretty much anything else, where all of the products are available to be purchased (i.e., you don't have to live in the Maytag franchise area to buy a Maytag dishwasher.)
