Roland, why dont you just accept, and not keep confusing people, that 
there is big structural difference between differing speeds as per what 
content user pays, and differing speeds as per what content provider 
pays, and the Net neutrality issue deals with the second issue alone. 
You dont have to agree with the NN guys on what is right and what is 
wrong, but why keep muddying established definitions.

No, that is not at all what NN advoactes want, and you know that. This 
is now gone to the levels of outright misguiding propoganda.
