Owen Oyston & Baby Bells

Good work on Oyston and thanks for your comments. 

Yes, I actually agree with you about most readers (at least the ones who are ever likely to read about Owen Oyston) wouldn't ever have a clue about what a Baby Bell (or even a Regional Bell Operating company) is; but I also figured that telling them that they are American still doesn't tell the reader anything that substantially affects that lack of understanding. To make much sense of it, I reason that they will still have to look 'Baby Bell' (or 'RBOC') up - and when they do that, then it will be obvious that it is an exclusively US thing. 

That is how I reason it; but there is no pride issue for me, so feel free to change it back you don't like ;)
