Re: [ga] Talk about sleaze.

[Eric Dierker <eric@hi-tek.com>]

When you are right you are right, that is sleazy.

William it is coming to increased attention that the ignorance level we
ascribe to the
"dotcommoner" is often also properly placed upon the smaller ISPs.

Are they paying attention to the larger political spectrum and the real
life big business behaviors of Versign?

Do you have a plan to get them more education and include them in the
process?

Sincerely,
Eric
