The Bishop Estate crowd took a real beating if the investment was a "total loss" -- a lot of prominent folk from Honolulu's inter-locking boards of directors. It's also somewhat sad because the names look like folks who were interested in making HawaiianTel a "local" company again -- kamaaina Missionary as well as scions of Hawaii's AJA and Chinese/Hawaiian business families.
