Today the FCC votes on the Network Neutrality proposal. The order is said to be quite large (and I am not sure when it will come out – it does not always come out the same day as the vote).

I have an FCC Hat for the person who can correctly spot my contribution to the order. Hint: assuming it survives final edits, it will be easy to spot.

Am I correct in concluding that the FCC seal actually shows a Federal agency electrocuting an eagle?????? I will have you know that is likely a violation of the Endangered Species Act, the Bald Eagle Act and possibly the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. You don’t want me to set Wheels&Wings on you.

Yeah, that’s pretty much what we call it. The seal goes all the way back to the day, and I believe the lightning bolts are suppose to be radio.

There was something else wrong as well. I think one of our engineers noted that the wiring diagram was wrong – as in it was grounded wrong and current could not possibly go through it as diagrammed. But I think that may have been fixed.

So, just look for the typos and bad grammar?

I was thinking we just command-f the words “puppy” and “bike” next to each other.

[jrenaut]

No, I think you have it backwards. The badass eagle is wreaking havoc on our puny network infrastructure with its lightning bolts.

Yeah, that’s what the kids who just graduated with JDs are fer. They can be the grammah fascists. That gives me more time, to, er, ah, do research. Yeah, research.

Is it the stuff about mobile voice services/networks?

I did a search for “coffee” and “puppies” in the document and got na-da.

[rcannon100]

I think you are just looking at the press release. I dont thing the order has been released yet.

[vvill]

Ah, okay. My next guess was going to be the phrases “virtuous cycle”, “fast lanes” and “clear rules of the road”.

Yes yes, I worked on all those provisions.

I didn’t see pickles anywhere but I did see
