If AT&T didn't know about the suit before it was filed (and I doubt this), and they didn't want the suit, they could have forced USL to drop it on day 2. They didn't. The relationship between AT&T and USL is not the same as between an owner and a dog. AT&T cann't claim not to have wanted the suit, since as owner of more than 51 percent of the stock, they could have stopped it any any time, especially BEFORE the suit was made. -- -Greg Hennessy, University of Virginia USPS Mail: Astronomy Department, Charlottesville, VA 22903-2475 USA Internet: gsh7w@virginia.edu UUCP: ...!uunet!virginia!gsh7w
