does anyone remember this at&t commercial from years ago
maybe I'm nuts but I seem to remember several years ago I think even before bushco maybe even during rayguns years that at&t had a commercial that toward the end of it was said or written I can't remember exactly which but it said we hear you I think it was. I think it was something to do with a commercial about how they were tooting their horn about how they were working for us improving the service or some such shit but it always worried me when i would hear or see, which ever it was, those words.

1. Some company used "we listen." I don't know if it was the commercial
you are thinking about, but your post reminded me of it.

10. reach out reach out and touch someone
what I remember from the at&t commercials at least I think it was the att&t commercials maybe it was something else but I thought they said reach out reach out and touch someone. I don't think they said it I think they sung it well at least I think there was more than one person singing.

Does that help?

15. AT&T needs to go under; we, the consumers, can and should facilitate their
demise. Ditto Verizon and all the other scum who sold out their consumers for future aggrandizement.
