Well I didn't ans. the header. Prices will go up call it supply and demand if you like but not necessarily it's the monies/interest. We've all seen activity and things moveing even long term projects. Hence to keep people on the job and complete their projects MSOs will start freeing up the money to the primes quicker and the primes will start paying more to keep the subs from jumping ship only fair since they will get their money sooner. Same thing that happened around 1994 the big push. These people solidly know for at least 6 months where the industry going. And so on to the installers. Then with comcast/twc/ adelphia thing going on it'll just get better people coming out of retirement or more hacks that flooded the industry those last 5yrs. I always laughed at thos ads for splicers 5yrs exp. then down to "2yrs experience" ya get what you pay for.
