Re: [ga] President Younger's Independence Day Address to the World

["Jim Fleming" <JimFleming@prodigy.net>]

Chuck,

You may have forgotten, the "customers" pay for the services....
Customers are behind each of those $6 per year fees that go to you.
With 30 million of them, that is $180,000,000 per year to run a cluster
of nameservers ?.....and some database servers for the Registrars...???

....that operation should largely be untouched by human hands, if it is not,
there must be a reason....if it costs more than say $10,000,000 per year
to run that operation....there must be a reason....where does the other
$170,000,000 per year go ?....certainly not back to the customers...
...or the Registrars....

Please explain where the $170,000,000 goes....
