Re: FCC modem tax etc.

[Peter Milbury <pmilbury@ericir.syr.edu>]

Steve brings up a very good point.

  It is a very good idea to check out very carefully any message that you
are thinking about re-posting to a discussion group.  That includes
announcements of new Internet resources, some of which are actually
unavailable or are not available as described.

  A good rule of thumb:  Check it out first!

Best wishes,
