Are you shipping to (non-beta) Internet Service Providers?
That is a YES or NO question. Please answer YES or NO!

You believe... Please answer (yes or no), is the strike causing
your delay?

You still have not answered why we are waiting...
Marty, your customers are reasonable people. We understand that there
are technical problems that can screw up your schedules. But you are
evading the questions.... That is unacceptable!
I can only guess that someone made a *REALLY STUPID* mistake in
engineering, and you are scare shitless that someone will find out.
So you ignore some questions and LIE about others.
Yes, I am calling you a LIAR. The modems are NOT shipping, and you
are trying to confuse us into thinking it is someone else's fault.
Your behaviour is the problem. Tell us the truth, and we will grit
our teeth and wait... You do want our respect, don't you?

Again, you did not answer the question. Sigh...
