OT: I was, many moons ago, managing a team of engineers designing a CDMA network for Lucent in Omaha and Lincoln Nebraska (THEIR client was Leap wireless/Cricket...a story on business plans gone bad I'll have to share one day).

Anyway, an ideal candidate for a cell site was the water tower in the Avaya complex in Omaha. Lucent, being the parent of Avaya, promised easy acess.

They failed to deliver and a decidely inferior alternative was used instead.

But that's how I **know** Avaya is a spin off from LU...
