Re: [ga] Registrar problem reports

[Eric Dierker <eric@HI-TEK.COM>]

Mr. Gomes,

I would like nothing better than to side with such a powerful and all
encompassing force as yours.  But you are full of it, a simple look at your
sites reflect this in great highlight.  Your company is committing an injustice
which will not always be tolerated and will soon be rectified.  As a very junior
ISP our company represents hundreds that you folks have torqued in such a way.
Get off your righteousness you are dead wrong and showing your face here hurts
your cause.  You also hurt the GA by creating a record of absolute falsity. *an
operational SRS* what garbage and do not be so confident without facts and the
record.

Peace to you Mr. Gomes but I would not like to be in your shoes.
