Riiiighht michael..... its a plotttt.....the evil cabal is shutting you
out by speaking in 'tongues' that you can't understand.....this allows them
to do their dastardly deeds right in FRONT of *YOU*!! <gasp> and you are
angry because you may not know whether you missed a terribly important
code....... <the horror>
well who the hell appointed *YOU* saviour of the net in the first place?
go away and come back when you have learned enough about the technical side
of this beast not to need a glossary to parse ordinary conversation.

a truly assinine staement michael.....
look dave farber is not *MY* favorite person in this arena. he was indeed
one of the key circle of old boys that planned what has now become ICANN,
but if you can complain about specific policy then don't waste or time on
this crap. farber created token ring architecture about 25 years ago and
he happens to be perhaps the *MOST* quoted person in the frigging internet
by the mainstream press.....if your assessment were accurate they would
find other favorites

like it or not most people here are internet literature from a technology
point of view... you show that you have no grasp of reality when you
expect an IETF TCP/IP engineer and a CIS prof from and ivy league school
not to mention the m-bone which iof it worked work a damn would be directly
relevant here to the issues of meetings and their venues
I hear I misseed a similar display of your behavior on the POISSON list or
was it POISED.......
you seem to want to be a player but you have assigned yourself to the ranks
of those whose remarks will be auto deleted by those here who give a damn
about the issues *AND* about who is allowed to waste their time..;.
can someone send sondow page 51 of vol 16 no 1 of network world??? that
will show him some other peoples perceptions of Farber....
