Not true, if they have pairs for a SDSL/T1, then they can fulfill a dark pair order. The ILEC doesn't know what the CLEC is going to run on it, and they shouldn't care. If you really want to find out about the "copper shortage" situtation, you can always flag down a neighborhood lineman. They are the ones that can tell you upfront if there is an actual shortage, or the VZHQ is spouting its propoganda.
