Hi Dave,
Thanks for your reply,
I agree that for now it is pretty much a done deal.
One point I want to say is that trying to focus on the 'technical' issues is
the wrong place in this environment. The Tech side is well stated, if not
looked at.
There is an econimic side, with possibility of 'scandal' written all over
it. If we were to exploit that to people like Kerry it could become an
election issue or at least a bruise to the president.
Can you imagine the media attention if millions of workers knew their
electric bill was going up because some president wanted broadband?

Richard,
I have never commented here on the TT Group but thought it was about time.
Gratefully, I have enjoyed many hours of good reading from all.
We all must understand when the Commander and Cheif want it... It will be
done.
This is a very determined to be sucessful fellow and has every intention of
making Mr. Powell a ISP hero. In addition, as we all know the Bush Cheney
Crew
are very much involved with the energy folks.. AKA as Haleberton.
GW is a pretty sharp chap and would think he would want to be aware of any
possible glitch in the Homeland Security Communications systems in addition
to NTSF issues. Maybe Mr. Ridge needs a talkin too as well, being Homeland
Security being a very big issue on the hill.
The best hope we have is the technical issues. As mentioned here on the NG,
the Washington folk do not have any technical backround. Somehow, we all
need to get the techinical issues to the White House so they are presented
properly insteed of be laid out by a bunch of lawyers who again are not
technically educated in addition to beating on our local Senate and
Congress folks doors.
Plus a few prayers...
Best 73/DX de Dave K4DLJ
