[BC] EAS box placement

[Broadcast List USER]

Larry:

I like you.  I have enjoyed speaking with you.  You are OBVIOUSLY a  
very bright guy.  I look forward to times in the future where we can  
enjoy a meal together, or at least a cocktail.

But, it isn't smart for you to post this stuff (and what you have  
posted recently) in a public forum!

All it would take is someone who doesn't like you to forward it to  
the FCC.  Now, I cannot imagine anyone who doesn't like you, but it  
might happen.

Could I really screw you by forwarding your mail to the FCC?  You bet  
I could.  I would NEVER do that for two very important reasons.  One  
is that I really like you, and I respect what you do to support our  
industry.  You are trying to do the right thing, so I wouldn't do  
anything to hurt you.

The other reason is that I would never screw anyone who was trying to  
make something better by explaining what is wrong with a system, even  
if I hated you.

BUT, you had better realize there there are other people out here  
reading this stuff.

Don't be so sure some jerk isn't going to forward your e-mails to the  
FCC.

I STILL think you really need to drop out, and complain like hell to  
your congress critters.
