E-bay asked me to help discourage legislation that would allow ISP's to control what we get to view on the internet, and for how much. So my letters went out automatically to representatives including Debbie Stabenow, here in Michigan. She sent me a letter telling me she agreed with my views. But in the end, when push came to shove and the prospects of such legislation popping up again became her topic, she wrote me that she'd "keep my views in mind." Thanks Debbie for your FIRM support. LOL. How do politicians get to be such self-contradictory wimps? As Ted Kennedy supports "Net Neutrality" on the following video, he actually manages to say with a straight face that the internet should be free of "any competitive behaviour." Amazing! Simply amazing, IMHO. These people require closer supervision. blog.ntu.org Dan B.
