Mark,
There is the world we'd like and then there is the world that we have. You may have the luxury of ignoring the world we have, but WISPA is a trade organization that represents people who have to live in it and run their businesses. Whether you or I like it or not, the WISP industry operates in spectrum that belongs to the people.and their government. The government has chosen to allow the FCC to be the primary decision maker about how and if spectrum is allocated. Before WISPA, there really was no voice for WISPs at the FCC (unless you count Mike Anderson and Part 15). WISPA has become a VERY effective advocate for WISPs at the FCC and to the various government entities. Jack and Forbes, along with Rini/Coran have made huge progress. We've received invaluable support from our membership in this effort. We are meeting later this month in DC with a number of our members, to talk to elected and appointed officials. They know who we are, who we represent, and they want to know what we think of various policy options. Before WISPA, they pretty much just heard from the big carriers. Have there been mis-steps? Sure. We work to minimize those and to maximize the benefit to ALL WISPs, particularly our membership. I've known you for a long time, and I like you and admire your passion. We share a lot of similar philosophies. In my opinion, you've crossed the line here. You are using WISPA assets (mailing list) to trash WISPA. If you have an issue with WISPA; go away completely; or jump in, join, and run for the Board. Taking semi-annual pot-shots at the organization.on our mailing lists, is not the right way to do things.

Some up, some down. I knew I could count on you to demonstrate complete ignorance of What Should Be, Because It Once Was. The founders would curse you for having no understanding. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Neofast, Inc, Making internet easy 541-969-8200 509-386-4589 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I really think you seriously need to read about our founding fathers, and how they operated, (they all did not get together and sing kumbaya at the camp fire, neither did they pickup their scrolls of paper and walk away to their own corners when there was disagreement )...and try to gain an understanding on the 'Democratic Principles of Government' on how they function and operate. You seem to be totally missing the last 2 thirds of the 'for the people, of the people and by the people' , and yes it is precisely because of thinking like yours (suggested in your own words), that the Great French Philosophers of their time, said that the US Constitution / way of Governing is never going to work, and it is doomed for failure.... When asked why ? The response was .. 'Simple. common people are not interested in participating in the Governing process'.
