Let me reason this out with you and Jack. I've always felt WISPA is
too conservative in simply making filings and a rare visit. I've

the local dog catcher candidate to take a policy position 60 days out

to pay off debt, a new tax is being proposed by the FCC to the

I see sending any kind of WISPA

I just don't think we should lose our cool and do destructive
