Subject: http://www.fcc.gov and LINUX exclusion

Hello Group;

I would like to request you to contact your State Representative, Senators and the Federal Communication Commission Officers about a issue that is causing ALL UNIX/Linux and Apple users a problem.  It seems that the FCC has chosen to exclude all NON Microshaft NT/95 users from being able to use their Internet Universal Licensing System which they have requested FCC Licenses holder to use for license renewals. 

The problem is that it requires a JavaScript Plug-in that is a Microsoft product only.

Simply go to "http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls" and then select "ONLINE FILING".  I believe this to be the complete path to the failure.  Which is "This plug-in only runs on Windows NT/95".

We need to protect the finest operating system from being excluded from the United States by our Government Officials.
