Do you report people to the authorities for not wearing their seat belts? How about for speeding? Both of those can result in direct harm to people. Filing or not filing form 477 will not directly harm anyone. It might result in the non filer getting in trouble. But that is HIS or HER problem. Not yours. It is not your place to enforce this on others. If this mailing list becomes an enforcement tool for the government, I'm out of here.... P.S. I have and will continue to file the 477. I just have no use for nark's. -- Blair Davis West Michigan Wireless ISP 269-686-8648 John J.
