Anything will help, but it's basically too late with
the FCC.  There's no organization for such effort.  I
would suggest for any not too time constrained to go
through the documents and procedures... look at what
is being proposed under "spectrum manager."  This
should be your first complaint.  There are other
proposals that require comment, but this should be
first priority.  Division was our enemy more than
government... they'd already screwed up.  And, it's
worse... there's an incredible group of individuals,
working on digital divide issues, from more than two
dozen countries, watching this rapidly developing loss
of freedom from regulation.  The big ICT's are
salivating.  They'll get another shot.

There's one last chance... McCain.  But it requires
organization across the country, and coupled with the
vocal moral support from the international arena...
which will necessarily cause involvement by the NGO's
and multilaterals.  On our side!  I know this.  I know
them.  I've worked in the international arena on these
issues for ten years.  This is the last window.  There
won't be others.

The time for squabbling, individual power trips,
and/or disorganization has passed.  We need a united,
even global, voice.  All the ingredients are in
place... the time to take advantage is passing.  

Don't shoot this messenger.
