   I called my local AT&T sales droid and told them that I was upset
   over this USL (AT&T) vs BSDI lawsuit...

   I expected, of course, sort of a yawn from the sales droid.  Instead
   the sales droid was very interested and wanted to write down the
   details of my complaint, and said that she was going to forward them
   to some big-wig somewhere.

They are specifically trained to respond this way to any customer
complaint about AT&T policies.

I don't know, though, whether they are then supposed to actually pass
the complaint on or throw it away. Perhaps someone else can fill us in.
