Your assumption that we haven't made many, many attempts to go down that road is not correct.

Also, this is a grass roots effort and not the only effort. The messages across the internet are powerful. Thanks in good part to a lot of very dedicated members HERE and a few other 'forums.' The future of TV merging with the internet is on our doorstep.

I'd like to know what you are 'doing' to effect change, aside from criticizing us and our efforts, which are far more than just talk.

Au contraire. Our goals are slowly but surely happening. Rome wasn't built in a day. We will not accept defeatist attitudes. You can call it combative if you like.

AND rabbits!


I've got a lot more I could say on this, but I just don't have the time to devote on it right now. I'm behind in my work and need to focus on that for a while. I will come back to this later....
