This was my first thought on reading Eric's post.  I wish Canada would 
get with the program, I'd kind of like to see Canada adopt something 
like must European countries are using, but they'll probably follow the 
U.S. - *eventually*.  Somedays I'd swear that the CRTC must think that 
their paycheques are signed by Bell/Rogers/Shaw not the tax payers, but 
this is getting off topic so I'll shut up now ;-).

Andrew.
