Re: Muni fiber: L1 or L2?

Masataka,

Using the UK as a model for US and Canadian deployments is a fallacy.  The
population density there is 673 per square mile, much closer to Japan's
(873 per sq mile) than either the US (89 per sq mile) or Canada (10 per sq
mile).  The UK also has a legal monopoly for telephone infrastructure and
very different regulatory system.  Using the UK for anything in this
discussion is simply wrong.

You may be a brilliant conversationalist in Japanese, but you're not making
a convincing argument in English and simply railing that your position is
correct without regard to countering information isn't going to convince
anyone.  Keep on this track and you're just going to be ignored by most
people on the list.
