This was a very nice message. It's really too bad that you posted it to
this network operators mailing list where not only is it off topic, but
most ISPs will never see the message. Although a few ISPs hang out here,
most of the people on this list are network operators and probably would
not be as receptive to your ideas as an ISP would be.

May I suggest that you sign up for one or more of the ISP mailing lists and
repost it there. Here are signup instructions...

or send the message
