...a TV commercial that I thought? was very bad. I am sure you remember it. First, the TV screen was without the spokesman for Verizon, and then, he walks into the picture, stops and then --- "Can you hear me now?" What does that imply? Doesn't it imply that when he was "over there," --- not in the picture ---- his phone would not work. Only when he walks into the picture does his phone work. It seems to me that it implies that it would not work just a few feet either side of the TV picture. Not a very good ad to promote Verizon. What do you think? My wife never did agree with me on this question, until one time she was getting poor reception on her cell phone, and she walked about twenty feet to one side, and said -- you guessed it -- "Can you hear me now?" And the other person could hear her better. So, it proved what I had said, --- When the person in the commercial was not in the picture, his reception was bad, which does not speak well of his cell phone service, the service he is trying to promote.
 
Well yes but they were demonstrating what another carrier might be like.
