Unless your answer to Question #21 above was an unqualified "no," pleaseidentify:a. the number of customers in this state who subscribe to or purchase
Qwest I s FX service;
the number of FX lines that Qwest provides in this state;
how long FX service has been available from Qwest; and,
the number of ISPs to whom Qwest provides such service.
RESPONSE:
Qwest objects to this request in so far as it seeks information about the
volumes of Qwest' s retail business, on the basis that such information
constitutes a trade or business secret and is confidential and proprietary toQwest. Qwest further obj ects on the basis that it does not retain
information about the business purposes of its retail customers and that such
information may be proprietary to Qwest' s customers.

Without waiver of the previous objection, Qwest responds:
a. Qwest does not track FX service by the number of customers purchasing theservice. Qwest tracks FX service by the number of FX lines in service.
Qwest has 140 FX lines in Idaho.
FX service has been available in Idaho since as early as 1954.
d. Qwest does not track FX service by the type of customer (ISP) thatpurchases the service.
