One of the oldest political tricks is moving a hearing to a different
date/time at the last minute to try to make it unacceptably
inconvenient for anyone wishing to testify to attend. I rather suspect
that such is the case regarding the hearings mentioned in an earlier
post concerning Michigan Bell's attempt to impose business phone
rates on all modem and/or BBS users. Ain't they cute?!
