Subject: Your local telephone company

There is a very important matter currently under review by the FCC
that will directly affect you:
Your local telephone company has filed a proposal with the FCC to
impose per minute charges for your internet service.  They contend that your
internet usage has or will hinder the operation of the telephone
network.
    
This is nothing other than an excuse to extract more money and to
hinder internet communications.  We all already pay a monthly service fee
for the use of the 'telephone network'.
    
The FCC has created an email box for your comments, responses must be
received by February 13, 1998. Send your comments to isp-AT-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 hear
this one.
    
Get this e-mail address to everyone.
