Maybe when they get 1000 "applications" from qualified individuals (even if you don't intend to even apply for them) all with notes that they won't pay the fee, the policy will change.
Eventually they'll figure out that it costs them more (in time and postage) to send apps out than to not accept the $60 fee.
This would be great...if we could really get everyone to do it! I imagine it wouldn't take long for them to "reconsider" their fee. I heard they were going to use airline apps any way and that already costs money to apply.
