2. This is global cuts I hope

6. The article on abcnews.com

said the job cuts will be "across the company and across the country." So I assume the cuts are in the US, not globally.

Cause he's superman!

10. well

11. Save the buggy whip makers!

AT&T is yet another one of those companies who failed to leave behind the 20th century.

While their workers will pay a price for it, I hope they find themselves a hot commodity in 21st century datacom companies.
