Notes:
* Network Neutrality is the fundamental principle that ensures I don't have to pay an extra fee for this web page to be as rapidly down-loaded as any other similarly designed web page on the Internet. Said another way, Net Neutrality ensures everyone has equal access to the Internet, rather than having to pay cable and phone compaines an added fee to ensure that your information flows over the Internet unimpeded.
