Re: Another observation..

Yup,

Smug is the correct word. However, being smug and being a commitee member
are not a good thing. Usually people who are smug are very happy that they
and only they know what is right.

I do not get the feeling that certain people give a s*** abou the problems
and processes that the ordinary poor cretins has to go through in his daily
internet life.

Yeah there is the same old typical western b***s***, I am not hungry why
don't those silly /africans/arabs/insert race get a job.

Or as Perry would say, screw the Biggest part of the DNS namespace go live
in .com, who cares really about DNS? We are here as Important and busy
people to decide about this little bit of it. The bit that makes money.

Some of you use words like Public Trust   try World-Wide Human trust.

Some of use Law. Try and study International Law.

Kevin

who is not smug but knows that he does not know everything, but still loves
sarcasm, and might be a arrogant as Perry but not quite.
