Thank you for your response, Milton.  I read the first few lines of 
Mr. Schwimmer's response and laughed so hard that I could hardly read 
the rest.  Imagine the little non commercial constituency, one little 
voice vs. 6 huge business groups being compared to Stalin?

By the way, speaking of little voices, DNRC is expected to contribute 
900.00 to the Intellectual Property Constituency to keep its tiny 
little voice of dissenting opinion.  Stalinesque indeed.
