I was expecting to be excited about it to John, but the FCC took a wrong term not with the lite-licensing part, but with the mandating HUMAN cooperation. They should have stuck to the original plan of mandating only EQUIPMENT cooperation. The human part is broken before it even starts -- you cannot have a rule that says you must make an agreement with another party when the same rule tells you you have to scrap that agreement and start over when the next person comes along.

If you remember I am married to one! :-) ... and you are *real* nice to her too, aren't you? :) John that is definately a "till death do us part" deal there.
