  This is pure hogwash Roberto and you know well that it is!  I admire
your attempt to shift attention away from the DIRECT involvement
of DNSO.ORG in organizing this meeting as a damage control
procedure, but the cat is our of the bag already, and such attempts
will not at this juncture be believed.

  And this comment here of yours Roberto confirms the FACT that the
DNSO.ORG is directly involved with this closed and secret, by invite
only January 21st meeting.  Nice try, but no cigar!!!

  Well GENERALLY speaking, the best thing for the DNSO.ORG to do at this
point is to publicly announce that it does not nor will it ever in any way
participate in any meeting of this nature.  However, somehow I very much
doubt that DNSO.ORG will make such an announcement...
