   David, it would be helpful to talk about this on friday.  The
amendment in question contains two studies, the second one has nothing to
do with the first one (it concerns a broader issue of consumer
representation before the FCC on all matters).


   Re: the Internet, Congressman Wyden is working on a new version of the
amendment which will remove the specific reference to common carriers
providing access, and speak more generally about providing a public
discussion on the benefits of flat rate pricing, and the policies which
may determine how pricing for Internet usage will be done, an issue of
interest to many persons, and worthy of broader discussions.  Congressman
Wyden is also investigating ways that this discussion can occur online
through the Internet.
