EATEL is actually a client of ours. They're a good company. Very good people 
and focused on the community.

Subject: Re: [brlug-general] Eatel wants in Baton Rouge

I've always liked Eatel as a company.  I wish they served my area.  I know a 
very good network guy that went to work for them a couple years ago... I think 
they both benefited from that deal.

I had eatel dialup for many, many years....

Is AT&T not deploying its "U-verse" fiber network in EBR?  They are in
Hammond and on the west bank, and other areas around here.   So I
wonder what happens when Eatel approaches a parish and says we want to
run fiber all over your parish, and AT&T says nope we already did
that.
