My collection of video's with a focus on telecommunication, television, and video. This is from a perspective of experience with the many independent telco's across the country that are true innovators, service providers, and folks that provide these technologies first. Be sure, it is not the mega-monoply companies with nationwide advertising campaigns that actually provide these technologies and services first. Like the Internet, it was small companies that became Internet Service Providers first, not the big boys. Keep in mind, saying so doesn't make it true; It just leaves the impression. So perhaps move to a small town if you really want service.

These are general highlights from 7.5 hours of taping the authors, city, and public responses. The views are contradictory at times, but hopefully presented with a balanced view overall. Highlights included comments from Representative Montgomery, Senator Plale, Eric Griswold creator of Brain Box Television, City Channel 12 Madison, Barry Orton UW Madison, Scott VanderSanden AT&T, Grant Langley Milwaukee City Attorney, and narrated overviews. Also highlighted is a spotlight on how an author of this bill knew very little about the exact things they define in the bill.
