Any of those pictures could easily have come from the itsy-bitsy Rural LEC I used to work for. None of those photos really show me anything SUPER! It just looks like any other CO in the world. That said, I'm sure it's massive and there were opportunities to take much more impressive photos than this. Close ups of telco racks will always look like close ups of telco racks, no matter where they're at.

I think its much more that anytime this many high level washington polictical slime gather (the 9/11 comission), its much more verbaly kissing ass and jerking each other off than actual work. Like I don't know, hunting down facts and answers. But thats just my 2 cents.
