what really surprises me is this phenomena called jeff williams.  i take
my hat off to jeff.  i consider jeff a friend and an inspiration.  i find
all this muck rakeing over jeff fascinating.  imagine prominent members of
the GA and DNSO planning meetings around pilgramages to the mailing
address of jeff williams ... or silo ... or whatever.

and let us not forget that all we really know about jeff is that he is
reported extensively in the press - on issues dns.  obviously the man is a
recognized expert.  i've addressed this to the press involved and did not
get much in the way of objection.

jeff is in my opinion a dns cultural icon.  who incidentally gives great
stock tips in dns companies.  i've followed some of his recomendations and
he spot on with respect to the picks.

so my hat off to jeff ... a cultural icon of a different colour.  yes?

agreed ... ;)

this happens every so often.  for the longest time william walsh claimed i
was not real ... then some idiot civil servant at the itu claimed i was an
undercover agent for nsi.

it's par for the course.
