Phil, and all,

Not a hoax.  About 2 months ago it was on a couple of TV news broadcasts.  It
followed a very major story, and was broadcast kinda "under breath" just
before a commercial.  It was about as long as the piece of your post that I
copied for this reply.  The FCC was considering some telephone companies
requests to place a surcharge/fee for internet use.
