This may be a rumor but....

Received the following from my daughter:

"I am writing you this to inform you of a very important matter currently
under review by the FCC. Your local telephone company has filed a proposal
with the FCC to impose per minute charges for your internet service. They
contend that your usage has or will hinder the operation of the telephone
network. It is my belief that internet usage will diminish if users were
required to pay additional per minute charges. The FCC has created an email
box for your comments, responses must be received by February 13, 1998. Send
your comments to isp@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
litiagation. Let everyone you know hear this one. Get the e-mail address to
everyone you can think of.
