Hi -

I received the following from a friend which should be of concern for
all

internet users. I encourage you to reponse to the FCC e-mail address to

voice your opinion.

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.

It is my belief that internet usage will diminish if users were required

to pay additional per minute charges. The FCC has created an e-mail box

for your comments, responses must be received by February 13, 1998.

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.

FCC E-mail: isp@fcc.gov

                Thanks Larry LaVerne
