I agree.

Without prejudice - so does Colonel Duesbury.  I called the NTIA today and asked if they did any confirmation of identities when receiving a submission to an issue.  They don't.  So I don't know if this is the real McCoy so to speak.

It fully supports what your going on about.  And is going on now.  I know there is a Colonel William C. Duesbury, U.S. Army (Ret.) out in the wild.  But I'm not sure if this is the real McCoy.  So I submit the link as real time evidence in support of your point.  The showdown begins.

This is a very strong comment for a retired army officer to make.

p.s. i still think you watch too much television.  Have you considered keeping a log.  Just kidding ;)

Greetings.  Less than a week ago at a conference, Alan Davidson of
Google reportedly noted that Internet policy issues have reached
something of an "Empire Strikes Back" moment, where all manner of
serious pushback from the traditional lords of telecom and government
is increasingly coming into play.

I agree 100% with Alan's analysis.

In fact, judging from a short new video clip (less than two minutes
long), even Lord Vader himself may actually be in the mix.

So, with apologies to Darth Vader and friends:
