 I am unwilling to put *any* trust
 in CORE or to follow any of it's
 alleged priciples. I am completely
 willing to follow every standard,
 nonprofit accounting, administrative
 and business practice in full and
 public co-operation with  people I
 choose to associate with. I do not
 and will never associate myself in
 any manner, profitable or charitable,
 with CORE/POC/PAB/IAHC/IANA/ISOC or
 any of the people attempting to shove
 all of these acronymanical organizations
 down our throats. Frankly they are
 all the same gang and I've had quite
 enough of their bullship.

 I will choose who I do business of any
 kind with. I believe in a multiplicity
 of choices. I am a free citizan willing
 to abide by all *reasonable* technical
 standards in creating a domain name
 registry in co-operation with like-minded
 others. There are no technical reasons
 to prevent tens of thousands of new Top
 Level Domain Name Registries from existing
 right now. I do not believe in monopolies
 or cartels. I will not be held hostage by
 a handful of interests which prevent me
 from acting in a reasonable manner.
