Was digging through an overfull drawer and found this. Pretty sure I borrowed this sometime late in President Obama’s first term. And just discovered Netflix has a @USPS box established for the express purpose of receiving straggler DVDs. pic.twitter.com/Q2w4LMO2IR

Quotable
“As today’s gathering demonstrates, in each of these principles—whether it is freeing spectrum, expanding broadband, diversifying networks, securing communications, or leading internationally—we have embraced the idea that no single entity can meed this challenge alone. We need a whole-of-government approach to get this done and one that is open to commercial innovation and opportunity. To do this, we need to draw on the strengths in our national DNA—our hard-wired belief in the creative possibilities of the future, the power of coordination and the rule of law. This is how we turn spectrum scarcity into spectrum abundance.”
–FCC acting chair Jessica Rosenworcel speaking at the 2021 NTIA Spectrum Policy Symposium
