Subject: [CYBERTEL] Kevin Martin to ATT - don't worry we will enforce nothing -
    why C & A should investigate ATT under C.F. R. Sec. 1.17

How many people here have read the Martin Tate comment on the merger approval?

The ones where they said to ATT don't worry we will not enforce your NN 
concessions!?!?  I think this is a huge part of this story going as yet 
undiscovered.  Copps and Adelstein need to refuse to allow a wriTten order to 
finalize this.

Copps and Adelstein Should Investigate ATT under 47 C.F.R. Sec. 1 .17

Thanks to Scott McCollough for suggesting the above strategy.
