Vincent, Thanks for the tip on WVFiberNet. Will try to look into them, as soon as I am through covering the current OneStar debacle. Their local telephone customers are scheduled to lose all access to dialtone and 911 services within 48 hours. Ouch!
If you feel that you have hit a standstill concerning paperwork, you might take a look at contacting a regulatory attorney. It might be worth the money, depending upon the situation. A good resource for finding some of these firms is at http://www.phoneplusmag.com . Look for the "Industry Directory", and scroll through the various categories until you find companies that offer regulatory assistance and consulting. You might just stumble upon someone who will save you a lot of time and grief, although FEW lawyers have ever done that for me personally. :-) Seriously, they do have a good resource, and I am happy to recommend it where it might help.
