Doesn't matter if they see the light, the FCC is a sock-puppet to the
commercial interests of the Bush administration.



It really wouldn't matter who was in power. Wasn't it under the
Clinton
administration, for example, when significant chunks of spectrum were
auctioned off to commercial interests?

Agreed.

Doesn't mater if they see the light, the FCC is a sock-puppet to the
commercial interests of the Bush^h^h^h^hsitting administration.

Happy?

You missed my point. It would be just as bad no matter whose
administration
it was and no matter to what party they belonged. If it were a Gore
administration, they'd be just as much a sock puppet to the commercial
interests of that administration.

All true...unfortunatly the REAL problem is the lack of basic, let alone
engineer level, knowledge to even understand what is going on with BPL.
Politics aside.....ain't it a real pity that the FCC has no concept what
they are doing with this BPL crap? No one in the right mind would have let
this get out of the first meeting.

As for the Bush administration pushing this. I think the real situation is
some low level gofer with his computer knowledge decided this is a 'good'
thing. Then he got someones ear to push it at the Prez.

Look at the way the NTIA back peddled.....they came on strong against
it...then all of a sudden they are going backwards. Politics...pure and
simple.

It is up to us and ALL THOSE it trashes to put on a sustained attack against
this BPL. If we don't we are stuck with it.
