The original NPRM was in 2006 so you've had 4 years to comment on how
inept the rule is before adoption.

Did you?


Was the date the proposal was to go into effect announced 4 years ago in
that NPRM?

So far as I can see, the main issue is the exceedingly short 60 day grace
period between when the proposal was announced as having been adopted (not
all proposals end up that way, hence the word "proposal") and the date it
was to become effective.
