I will assign your first homework assignment again, although you have already flunked. I recommend that you do it for your own good. Your redundancy and blathering are more than tired. The answers are all there and I don't need to spell them all out just for you becase you are too lazy and clueless to get it. Also, read the petition. If you have a clue about the other proposals put forth by other "players" and an iq above 65, you will see the difference. Again, your Homework Assignment: 1. Go to the US Department of Commerce site and read the public posts. http://www.ntia.gov.ntiahome/domainname/email/ 2. Call the following Agents from the US Department of Justice and ask them if they think Paul Garrin has enough credibility to cause them to fly to NY from Washington DC to discuss Name.Space for over 4 hours. James J. Tierney Trial Attorney, Computers and Finance Section US Department of Justice Antitrust Division (202) 307 0797 Ruth S. Raubitschek Economist US Department of Justice Antitrust Division Economic Analysis Group (202) 307 6650 raubitrs@justice.usdoj.gov Deborah Connor Trial Attorney US Department of Justice Antitrust Division (202) 514 4890 3. Go to the name.space media page and read some of the recent media. Why would the Washington Post SF Chronicle and LA Times print the same story about the USDoJ investigation, mention the pgMedia case against NSI, and in the same article in the NY Times no mention of pgMedia. http://name.space.xs2.net/media 4. Go to the name.space website (since you probably have never even checked it out) and register a name, create an address record (full administrative access for user via web) and mirror your homepage while creating a virtual host on the fly...all functioning in less than 10 miniutes. http://name.space.xs2.net 5. Try to do the same at Network Solutions. http://rs.internic.net 6. Read the names and addresses of the signitories of the Name.Space petition to the USDoC. http://petition.name.space.xs2.net/ns./com/sign_petition.html 7. Send in your own comments to the USDoC. Instead of being the curmudgeons scowling in the corner waiting for and opportunity to piss on everyone, try and do/say something constructive for a change. Better hurry...the deadline is tomorrow, Monday, August 18, 1997. 8. Smile!
