Just out of curiosity , what is their present outstanding drop count at ? I know they may have gotten out of control due to some of the persitant weather systems we have been experiencing . If it is unussually high , that may account for the current situation , which I consider along with you to be un-realistic . Perhaps they are recieving alot of pressure from the FCC , to get thier wires in the ground . Are there a lot of temps involved ? It would be wonderfull if all the primes would stand together , and , perhaps persuade the utility company to be more realistic with their requests . What a beautiful dream , huh ?
