Larry I understand your concerns, but this has been going on for quite
sometime in the world of federal regulations. for example just look at the
mandated use of ethanol in our fuel supply.

In your opinion who should be establishing the requirements for
certification. Yes the DOD requirements really only apply to products for
use in the federal sector more specifically within DOD, but they have become
the de facto requirements for better or for worse.
