AT&T reassembles the pieces · Proposed air date:

The retirement of the Cingular name sends Dr. Dave back to his own migration from AT&T to Cingular and now toward AT&T again. He sees the BellSouth purchase and rebranding as part of a striking reversal in which the pieces separated by the telephone divestiture begin consolidating under the old name decades later.
