@brembs the problem with carbon footprint was "truthiness" - it sounded plausable if you did not think too much about the concept. Assigning emissions to acts of consumption seemed like it could be helpful. But consider the carbon footprint of a lowly carton of ice cream. The emissions from field to factory to refrigerated distribution to grocery, they can all pale beside the emissions if you suddenly decide you deserve a treat, hop in the car, and drive ten miles just to buy that ONE thing.

@sundogplanets done; fortunately I already have a FRN due to HAM license, so the annoyingly obtuse FCC site is a bit more navigable. Anyone doing this comment submittal should know that when it comes time to reference the "file number", you do NOT have to scroll through the choices (which are seemingly infinite), but can PASTE the file number into the entry field.

@rocketsoup I think the pant leg goes in thru the fly.

@cstross everything is fine!
