Washington D.C.-

It was announced today that Kellogg's and the Federal Communications 
Commission
have signed a pact to issue Amateur Radio Licenses on specially 
marked boxes of
Corn Flakes.

In this unprecedented move the FCC believes this will not hurt 
amateur radio but
allow all individuals to receive an amateur radio license without having to
demonstrate any skills with the exception of being able to use a pair 
of scissors
to cut out their operating permit from the breakfast cereal box.

Kellogg's spokesperson commented that they were proud to have been 
selected by the
government to be the issuer of licenses for amateur radio in the US 
and hope to
soon make an agreement with other cereal loving countries. They also 
expect that
will be issuing certificates of achievement for DXCF for confirmed 
contacts with
100 corn flakers.
