It is about conferencing, not about the technical nature of computer networking. The technical aspects are only the vehicle.

Take a look at the geography in the SanFransisco area. I picked that location for a good reason. I live near enough that I've had a goodly amount of experience with where the radio signals get to. Nobody in another state is *ever* going to hear KALW over the air. There are hills that ensure that you can't get a low angle to the ionospere. Google on "total internal refraction". >During atmospheric conditions called ducting, some very long signal paths >will exist.

Ducting won't get the signal from KALW out of state. >>> 2.

Or NY and New Jersey. Or Ca. and Mexico. Etc. No, consider only the case I gave. The station in never going to be heard out of state. How does the FCC constitutionally get the right to regulate it, that can't also be used as an argument making the NHS constitutional? Several people have asserted that the constitution bars a NHS. -- -- kensmith(a)rahul.net forging knowledge |
