Armstrong seems much more comfortable now -- whether he has a good plan forward is another story. A year and a half ago I thought he was in over his head, and just throwing spagetti at the wall. He did say on Monday that ATT's books were honest and maybe that was the reason they were then at a competitive disadavantage to the lately fallen high-flyers.
