I don't know what the other plan would be.  I mean, if AT&T is willing to
pay $.30 on the dollar, that would be better than what the creditors would
get if they dismantled the company and sold it piecemeal.  I would think.

Then again, the creditors wouldn't be "getting their pound of flesh" if they
let AT&T buy @home...
