Thank you ladies for responding to my post. I would further ask you if congressional support is simply out of the question, that you make at least some effort to correct the misinformation being publicized by the shills and lobbies when the opportunity arises. Especially what it isn't - managing the internet or that it stifles competition. Most people have no idea even what it is it seems.

Good idea..

My congressman is busy tickling the tonsils from the south end of the industry he does not have time to listen to me. I call regularly and voice my concerns, the clerk just says they'll be sure and let Reichart know of my concerns. I'm sure.

My congressman's head is so far up the ass of the industry it has disappeared. However, I have sent faxes and made calls. Won't go down without a fight.
