		<description>Mr. Wu,

Listened to, and basically agree with your position on free the airwaves. Do not agree with your gratuitous comment regarding energy (Energy exploration is free - all you have to do is have several billion dollars to do so - don't forget the wildcatters who created the industry who had nothing and created the industry)

I have been in the telecommunications business for over 40 years and notice things such as the telephone on your credenza in the background of your video. That telephone, which does nothing more than allow you to make a call and receive one, and listen to voice mails (all of which can be done on your PC, laptop or $15.00 analog phone) costs Columbia (I assume that is where you made the video) more than what a PC AND monitor costs, in addition to all of the connection and software fees.  You might want to investigate the extraordinary expense being incurred at academic institutions while folks like you rail at the bad old oil companies. There are a lot of people who cannot go to colleges of their choice because of the never ending increase in tuition. Please address some of your outrage in that direction - it could actually be helpful!</description>
