Some of these people are FPL employees, they are not all outside lobbyists. In the pursuit of fairness, maybe you should note that.

They are on the lobbyist list. I reprinted the lobbyist list. That is fair. If FP&L registers them as lobbyists they are Lobbyists. That is accurate. I am not going through each one.

gimleteye is correct.. The County list is mostly attornesy from Bercow and Radell... Ramon Ferrer and one of the nicest guys you will meet, Manny Rodriguez, are FPL external affairs... So is Pam Rauch and Steve Scroggs... I think Manny Echezzarreta, Steve Carney and Rob Curtis are FPL as well...

Rob Curtis is not FPL he is a pain in the butt annoying lobbyist
