- The first major revision of the US Telecomunications regulation since
- 1937, was signed into law today by presedent (slick willy) Clinton.
- He was observed to inhale several times as he signed the law with both
- an ink pen and an electronic pen (you can see his signature somewhere on
- the www). Critics note that because of the law, it is now illegel to
- discuss on the internet what the presedent did with half the women in
- Arkansas (and not a few of the sheep). The presedent is still free to
- continue doing it to the American people.
- What does this mean to the Amiga? Hopefully it means ultra cheap
- Internet provider fees. AT&T had a plan to offer IP services for as
- little as $3.00 a month tacked on to your phone bill. The thing an
- elcheapo web computer needs for lots of elpooro people to buy it is
- a really low cost access to the web. Maybe now we will have it.
