Len, I'm not going to sit here and argue with you as you try to twist what
I've said. The Constitution gives Congress the power to ratify international
treaties. That ratification process you want explained has be established
for over two hundred years and can easily be researched yourself if you
really want to know something about it. The United States is not, and has
never been, automatically subject to any treaty change by either the UN or
ITU. Any change in a treaty requires action by our government before it
becomes the law of this land. When it comes to code testing, our government
will have to take steps before any change takes place in this country. Until
you offer something which disputes any of this, nothing further needs to be
said.
