You never know.
I've been talking to CenturyLink recently, and I found the enterprise 
sales person to be very responsive.  It's been easier than I imagined it 
would be.


.though I'm not talking about a duct.  We're talking about getting 
connected to one of their long haul sites.  This is something which in 
the past I've never gotten traction on, but this time they seem to be 
seriously looking at what it will take.

CenturyLink bought Level 3, so I don't think you have any better 
chances now than you did then.
