Richard - Heard of George Barrell. I know several people at Cable Crafters. Randy Grant is a very good friend of mine. I worked for Copley in Harbor Cities under Bill Roacha. Yeah, I knew CanAm sold to Arguss. In fact Brad came out to NC when White Mountain was folding their hand, and tried to recruit for Seattle. Should be plenty of emergency restoration after those hellacious snow storms in the mountains. Hell, it even snowed in Palmdale! I like it alot out here. Don't think I could deal with the traffic anymore. Most of my family is still there though. Been out here 9 years now and of all the states I've worked and lived in, North Carolina is the best. Hope things pick up for ya. Take care.

Time Whiner corporate people wanted White Mountain in here for some stupid reason. Didn't last long though now did it? Cra-Mac, or Mastec, has it all back again and they actually are able to pull it off. Your back where you belong anyway. Good place for you too.

Gary, the fact is that you're a hack, you have a problem with telling the truth so please limit yourself with things you know. You seem to think that you can run a company just because you can read a site map. There's a lot more to this business then you will ever know. You are a talking head and you like to jump up and down and scream about things you have that are none of your business. Here's a sobering fact for you, I'd rather have hemorrhoid surgery in a 3rd world country by a blind doctor than have you on any job sites. You're a piss-ant trouble maker who's only recourse is to make slanderous remarks about former employers on the bar. That's why we let you go in '98. Get a life

Gary Vest,do you remember Star Communications in Blacksburg,VA?...I remember it well.

Yes I do, Carl. Why do you ask? I do not remember you. What did you do for us? I was only there for about 4 months and it was during the start up. Only thing going was construction when I left for Texas, and I do not recall a Carl that did construction for us. Whoever you are, did you have a problem? Other than Star having some seriously low prices, there were no problems with material or design.

I checked out your e-mail handle, Carl, and if this is Carl Worley, which I see the cw before horizons on your screen name, you never worked in Blacksburg. You work for Protel in Corpus Christi, so what is your point? What is it your trying to accomplish?
