All, <BR>

As my first posting I need to ask a question, can we publish to the group the recipients on the distribution list? As a career telecom professional I have many opinions I would like to share but I need to cautious that my personal opinions are not viewed as official positions of the the current administration. I would like to know who is recieving the message.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>
