No offense, Phil, but the fact that we even have to fight as bad an
idea
as BPL
has caused my respect for a certain "expert agency" to all but
disappear.

Whoever said the FCC was an "expert agency"???


I realize that may seem strange to anyone who hasn't been around
radio regulation for as long as a few decades, but the FCC is indeed,
as the final authority, *the* expert agency. And have often been so
considered by various courts when faced with challenges to some of
their actions.

Yes they are the final authority but that does not make them an "expert".
Even a court ruling does not make you an expert. In addition, the courts
are ruling on the legality of the action not necessarily whether the action
is correct in an engineering or technical sense.
