Agreed...I've downloaded, and watched several times, a Bell System movie about
Ma's role in building the DEW Line during the Cold War.  The Defense Department
asked Bell to build the line because it was the only organization in our
country which had the combined design, manufacturing, construction, and 
operational capabilities to do it, between the Labs, Western Electric, Long
Lines, and the operating companies.

Now, we don't have that resource...
