Do not attend CCNA meetings so got my info on this one from your and SOS’ blog. Have two questions:
1) How did the vote go? Was it close or a large majority for slowing down and studying the ERA proposal more carefully?
2) Had to look up FUD on Wikipedia via the link you provided and found it described: “Fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) is a sales or marketing strategy of disseminating negative and vague or inaccurate information on a competitor's product. The term originated to describe misinformation tactics in the computer hardware industry and has since been used more broadly.â€
Wow! The people I’ve heard talking about the ERA are asking questions, not spreading negative, vague or inaccurate information. When a lot of citizens are asking for more thorough review of a very important issue, that hardly seems like they're dealing in fear, uncertainty and doubt.
