Gee, that took all but five seconds...

Sure, I know, it's "wiki" but, you seem to have ample time to check out the facts.

Let us know what you "prove". :)

Poptech, reread my timeline. I said Peter Mannetti founded US West Wireless in 1997. He was hired by US West in 1995. The major wireless breakthrough he led was with US West Wireless - http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0BFP/is_1999_Nov_22/ai_57758541/.

I think the confusion comes from the Quest acquisition. When a company gets acquired, you start referring to the old company as the new company. As you said, he wasn't President of Quest Wireless that long (only a few months) so his "claim to fame" happened before that - when he was with US West as President of its wireless division.

Regardless, I believe Peter Mannetti and his US West Wireless team accomplished some truly amazing cellular wireless technical innovation in the late 1990's that led to significant revenue growth. I welcome that kind of leadership know-how on Neom's BOD. Now we just need YA to get out of the way so this new BOD blood can be an asset to providing shareholder value.
