Dave Burstein here, and thanks Karl for quoting me. The folks taking over at the FCC are in principle on the right side of this. Jules Genachowski put net neutrality high in the party platform, and Markey/Boucher are trying to get it in the stimulus. Of course they are "politicians", but they are good ones and know the issues. They've promised change; let's persuade them this is the right change.

Michael Copps, acting chair, has posted his email on the FCC site michael.copps@fcc.gov . His key colleague is jonathan.adelstein@fcc.gov . Most of the Obama transition team posted their emails on their websites, and responded thoughtfully but quickly when I wrote them.

Please, please, please be effective by making your email courteous and to the point. These folks are ten year pros in the business and generally know more than you or I. The best way to influence them is with facts they don't already know. You'll get a better response if you keep your message short.

No one believes me when I say actually they do listen. I'm not pretending you'll have the influence of Verizon's $7M lobbyist, but frankly everybody at the FCC is sick of the usual lobbyists saying things they've heard before. When they hear something new, they often pay attention.
