Re: [ga] Mr. Qaddafi Salutes Verisign

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

Does anyone know of a prior occurrence of;

One Nation doing what the US Gov. is doing here.

When telegraphs and telephones went international, how did they do that?

When mail became international, how did they do that?

Ships seem to have been going in and out of international and national
waters
for time eternal how do we allow and govern that?

Interesting areas worth reviewing are Hague, Torecelli (Cuba) and the
basis for
cooperation on the Olympics.

Sincerely,
Eric
