Sender: Jack Decker <•••@••.•••> If any of your readers are in Michigan, you might want to visit the Michigan Telecommunications Act rewrite page at either of the following URL's: http://www.novagate.com/~jack/mta.html http://www.rust.net/~jack/mta.html This page is a great example of what you get when the phone companies are allowed to craft the legislation they want. This bill is being railraoded through the Michigan legislature and depending on what happened this afternoon (I haven't heard yet), the only way to stop it may be if the Governor vetoes it. Anyway, just thought you might want to know that it's not just at the federal level where anti-consumer information is being proposed.
