None of the stuff I regularly depend on comes by rail.

Latest word from global shipping watchers was that we are now in trouble with 
the US railroads.  Listening to the UP FB groups sounds like the engineers are 
at the end of their ropes with the big RR lines.  Talks of strikes in July ( 
not much left of it ) against fed laws preventing them.   Kinda like the boa 
that tried to swallow a deer, takes a while for the blockage to move through 
and any issues can really gum up the works...

  Mark, 

  Order 2 years worth of stuff from Calix.  Just keep pushing the dates back.  
I think I did 5 years worth of u6x/u4m/axos cards/etc (I adjust it every month, 
simply push it back 30 days if you don't want them).

  My guess is those POs we give them enable them to leverage that future 
revenue for bigger purchases from China or whatever.

    We met with Calix this week and they say they can cover it - but of course 
want 2 years of orders.    Last time they asked for 6 months of orders which we 
gave them - and they didn’t make that.  They usually pull something out when we 
complain but it’s getting tiring.

      Calix hangs out here.  Maybe Cory or someone can give us an update that 
will give us some hope?

      Expensive, but it’s their inability to actually deliver product is going 
to push us to go elsewhere.   Between their screwed up ERP system and the other 
supply shortages it’s time to find an alternative.

        Mark - how are things working out with the GPON vendor?   Can’t say 
that is one I have heard of (DZSI).    I’m thinking it might be time to make 
(another) vendor change.

          Josh,

          I don’t think that was us.  I really haven't done anything I would 
say was crazy expensive.  Yes, 10 years ago when we put this in with the help 
of government money, it was definitely more expensive than than wireless.  
However, I haven't had to do any fork lift upgrades in 10 years.  I'm using the 
same original equipment at the head end.  We still get some lightning damage 
but it is a fraction of what we experienced with the wireless.  Not having to 
deal with roofs in the Florida summer is a bonus also.

          We are still paying off the loan portion of the grant/loan.  We 
believe doing that program 10 years ago was the best business move we made for 
us and the community.
