I stayed up all night two nights watching it over the web; I watched 
the entire DNSO general assembly meeting, and the entire ICANN 
meeting.

I was watching you, Michael.  It is so entertaining to see you use 
the "royal we" when speaking of the ICIIU...

No -- I would never think of creating a fake organization, and then 
using it as a platform to build a fake constituency proposal -- I 
have to leave it to you and Jay and others to come up with those 
brilliant, subtle tactics.

I have learned that from watching you, and several others.

Yes, it is.  It is the one reported to the ICANN board meeting, and it 
is the one that David Maher sent around to the NCDNHC list.

Of course not -- open and transparent processes are for others, not 
His Royal Highness Michael Sondow.

Somehow, I could have guessed that.

No, I couldn't find them.

Wow.  Single-handedly? I must be remarkably competent, then, wouldn't
you say?

Actually, I couldn't afford to go.  NSI didn't pay my way like they 
promised.  But one can't help but wonder who pays for you.
