Michael (Bullit) lied again and again about Part 15 being non-profit and some 
other things.  We needed a real trade group.  Rick, Marlon, Scriv, Matt, Tom, 
Bob, (and I'm sure I'm forgetting a couple) started working on Wispa.  It's 
amazing how far we've come!

I have mixed feelings about Mike Anderson...yes, he lied, but he did get all of 
us together at first through the Wispcons. He made the first contacts with the 
FCC.  Can't minimize those things.
