I've only been to one NRIC meeting.  What a snore.  Not even any good
hallway/bar conversations.

The problem with the Internet is it either has too many industry groups
or not enough.  CIX, ITAA, ISP/C, TISPA, ISOC, IETF, ICANN, IOPS, ASPF,
etc.  And AOL is a industry representative of one.  The reality is NRIC
or the FCC has no idea who to contact about Internet issues.  I suspect,
but don't know, NRIC sent a letter to IOPS and considers that the industry.
