Oops.

MCI will sell to Cable & Wireless its Internet backbone service
business comprising all of its 22 domestic nodes, 15,000
interconnection ports, and more than 40 ongoing peering agreements.

That's certainly isn't how _I_ interpret that paragraph.  I can't
imagine them selling the IP business.
