A little comment from an outsider. Even if I.S.P. was copyrighted
to the hilt, I don't believe it will make any difference. There
10 times more people in the City of Calgary that think ISP means
Internet Service Provider than there are CIPS members in the
entire country. When you look at the country as whole I think
you've got a mountain to move to change the public's perception of
the letters ISP. A little like trying to get PC to mean purple corn.
If y'all insist on staying with ISP you may want to contact those
who to talk to public on Internet issues, and ask them to make
the change to IAP.
