Yet that is the document followed by most nodelist clerks. When you apply to
THEIR system for access THEIR rules apply.

Like it or lump it, your choice if you want to be node listed.

How is it that about 1000 of us around today have managed to understand Pol4
and succeed with our node number applications?

Yet that is what most nodelist clerks rely on. IT WORKS!

Bullshit. How many NCs have you actually asked?

The steps laid out in Pol4 are simple to understand and DO work.

Are you actually interested in getting a node number/nodelisted, or do you just
like hearing your own voice?
