A federal judge in Denver refused today to acquit four former Qwest executives accused of artificially boosting company revenue by $34 million, saying there is enough evidence to support guilty verdicts.

Thomas Hall, Grant Graham, John Walker and Bryan Treadway are accused of conspiring to help the Denver-based telecommunications company improperly book the money in 2001 to meet financial targets, perhaps hoping to boost their own bonuses.

All have pleaded innocent to conspiracy and fraud charges stemming from a $100 million deal to connect Arizona schools to the Internet.

1. Good.

Does this mean they will no longer have the absolute worst customer service I've ever dealt with?

I doubt it...I won't hold my breath (or ever get a landline from them again).
