 Why not? The Internic/NSI/SAIC
 triad seems to. And I'd say -
 to utilize your analogy - what
 I am requesting is a few acres
 for the use of many hundreds of
 thousands of people.

 Furthermore... in effect Free
 Community Network be giving away
 our Doman Name services. Instead
 of throwing virtual road blocks
 in our way you should be knocking
 down walls to allow .FCN the
 opportunity to serve.

 Please be co-operative Kent. .FCN
 is trying to be reasonable and
 to serve humanity. There is no
 profit motive involved. None.

 .FCN has the technical means to
 realize a full blown DNS registry.
 We have our first client in the
 Toronto Free Community Network.
 We will do really good things if
 people like yourself could see
 beyond history and envision some-
 thing more and better.

 Sincerely...
