I concur with Bill generally regarding the infrastructure investment
attitudes of telecommunications companies; I'd far sooner trust AT&T
than any other I can think of.  On the other hand, having had the 
experience of laying TV cable at the minimum depth of 24 inches when
the topsoil ends (and limestone begins) at 8 inches, in <100F Texas sun,
I have some sympathy for the guy who has the job of laying the cable...
