Tks Mike,

Yes, I'm sure that's true although it sometimes gets obscured in the day to
day back and forth.

Now to get down to the nitty gritty of figuring out how to make sure that we
are able to achieve that goal.  

However, having agreed on the objective is a major step forward.

You won’t get a lot of pushback on this. 

Except for a whole lot of arguments over what that means.

There are more than a few folks who believe that their Internet efforts have
indeed been in the public interest.
