I respectfully suggest that the multiple listing limitations being advocated by the National Association of Realtors is an illegal horizontal restraint of trade, represents unlawful monopolization practices, and is forbidden by the FTC Act. You may phone me at&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; for details.<A name=RDACT1></A> </body> </HTML>
