It appears the UPLC (United Powerline council) does not value people that
enjoy tube radios. This from a group of people that use glass

From the article"

"UPLC reminded the Commission that BPL is not just another broadband
access platform, but one that enables applications in ways that other
technologies do not by providing enhanced utility applications, home
networking, symmetric speeds, and low latency for a variety of
services. Unique applications will improve the efficiency and
reliability of electric service to utility customers as well as
promote broadband competition for consumers, carriers and ISPs -
saving lives, reducing electric generation costs, remedying the
digital divide and conquering the DSL- cable duopoly."



Wow! This stuff can do anything except restore virginity. And
I'm sure they're working on that little problem.
