No- their churn increase was in line with some of the industry leaders, and
better than a year ago. To the entire population of the world minus one
(that would be you), they have been very successful over the last year in
improving all metrics.
You stating that they are a WLNP loser is vaporfact.

You didn't read very much of the filing, did you? The filings on the 19th
are amendments to previously filed registrations that dealt with PCS stock.
The amendments were filed to convert those registrations to FON stock. One
of the registrations was for the Employee Stock Purchase Program, which is
open to all employees. And if you had read further, you would have also
recognized that many of the executive shares mentioned are being offered as
options, not ouright gifts. This is not the cash cow you are projecting it
to be.
