Ok, David. Fine They are equipped technically. As you note, of course, they _have_ to be, they're the InterNIC. But answer this: why is it that _you_ have to be the one to tell us this? The major complaint I hear about the InterNIC isn't that they're arrogant, it's that their a black hole. Or worse, a roach motel: complaints check in, but they don't check out. That's exactly the problem I have with them. They need a PR person, with an extensive background in the culture of the net, and the power to get things done... and they need one _now_.
