There's no imminent Congressinal action here, folks. Note that HR2441 may be revived next year, but we have a reprieve for now.

I hate to be cynical, but I seem to remember the same thing being said about the CDA and the Digital Telephony bills.

Things have a strange habit of getting snuck through at the last moment...

Hey, I'm cynical too. But I'm also a realist. If the bill starts showing any signs of life, I'll be the first one covering it and pushing the sucker back in its grave unless it's changed radically. But right now it's a fetid rotting carcass, and ain't going nowhere. -Declan
