[NNagain] state broadband offices

[le berger des photons]

Loon's ten years with backing from we don't know where doesn't compare well
with Sherwin's 50 years of constant success,  billion dollar receipts
nearly all plowed back into the business with no expense spared for taking
proper care of the employees.

For me,  the comparison ends with Loon basically cheating on those patents
you spoke of.
