This is an important issue. Please read the following and forward your
email response to the address listed.
The telephone company wants to impose a per minute fee on all calls to ANY
Internet Service Provider. That means flat rate internet access will no
longer be possible! (If this bill passes.) I am writing you this to inform
you of a very important matter currently under review by the FCC. Your
local telephone company has filed a proposal with the FCC to impose per
minute charges for your internet service. They contend that your usage has
or will hinder the operation of the telephone network. The FCC has created
an email box for your comments, responses MUST be received by February 13,
1997. Send your comments to ISP@FCC.GOV and tell them what you think. Every
phone company is in on this one, and they are trying to sneak it in just
under the wire for litigation. Let everyone you know here this one. Get the
e-mail address to everyone you can think of. ISP@FCC.GOV Please forward
this email to all your friends on the internet so all our voices may be
heard!
