Yes..he is clueless, but the political agenda here is to promise people what
they want to hear. Given that the FCC has increased restrictions on BPL
deployment in its recent NPRM regarding Part 15 requirements means that the
market will sort it out. Investors in BPL will see new limitations on BPL
and have to consider its reliability against alternative systems that really
work, like DSL, cable, and the various flavors of wireless continuously
emerging. The shrub and his current administration won't have to kill it,
the market will. It just sounds good in this election year. However, it
just shows how stupid and gutless the management of this BPL issue has
been!!!
