Following is a reply from a Maine Congressman that was passed along to 
me.  It is the only official position I've seen on this matter.  Keep in 
mind that this guy also believes Clinton should be knighted for his 
actions on women's' rights.

Thank you for your e-mail message regarding the rumor that the
FCC is considering charging long distance or other fees for Internet 
usage.  I appreciate hearing from you.

When a call is completed between two local phone companies, a
charge is paid by the caller's local phone company to that of the 
receiver's local phone company.  Fees paid by phone companies to
each other are equitable because calls go both ways.  For example, you 
may call a friend on one occasion, and the next occasion your friend 
calls you.  The charges between the phone companies even out in the long 
term.  In the case of the Internet, however, one company ends up paying 
a lot of money to a competing company without seeing a return benefit.  
Calls to Internet providers always go one way - from the Internet user's 
line to the Internet provider's line.  The FCC is reviewing
whether an Internet provider's phone company should be receiving this 
compensation.

Any decision in this case between phone companies will have no
direct effect on Internet users, because they do not pay the fees for 
completing calls.  I have been informed by the FCC that their ruling on 
the local phone companies will be forthcoming shortly.  Regardless of 
the decision, it will not require a new charge on Internet users.  I 
hope this information will help to clear up any confusion.

Enrique,

A year or so ago I put together a MetaStock system based on William's 
alligator.  The indicators are simple moving averages as I recall.   I 
remember one used Wilder's smoothing and I was able to match his 
indicators exactly.  

It may take a few days to dig it out but I'll pass it along to the list 
so everyone can have it.

i wrote the bottom msg to equis as i was upset at going through the process
and getting nowhere..


does anyone update there own symbol list...


what is the easiest way...

msg to equis====>well i went through the procedure to update the sp400 and
500 and there were no updates to the symbol file...don't you realize that i
must spend 3 or 4 hours to delete all me data..create new files..then
gather all the data..all for nothing..as well..sp100..400..500..and dow
jones could be off by 100 symbols...a big percentage...


updating these myself would take a few days to do it 100 %..why do you
commit on something like this and never keep it up to date..
