Thanks to a Verizon technician who came by this morning, he told me the
large spool (almost 6 feet tall) belongs to Kentucky Data Link, Inc of
Evansville, IN and from what i gathered when calling them, they didn't know
it was "missing" or had been left here.

I'm expecting a call and visit from one of their area technicians to figure
out what to do.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions and ideas!  (Closed Circuit to
Brett: This will be my last post on the subject, lol )
