Hi, Dave --

how's life back in PA?  how's the effort going re introducing 
legislators/agencies to technology?  that was a great idea, and you're the 
person to do it.

in light of this week's Senate hearing (and last week's House hearing), 
your readers might be interested in an article by David Johnson and Susan 
Crawford posted this afternoon on icannwatch.org:

"The idea of ICANN was the same as the idea of the internet. ICANN was to 
be open, voluntary, standards-based, decentralized and built on 
cooperation. These core ideas prefigure the solutions to the 
organizational issues now being debated in the DNSO working group, the 
issues to be covered by the At Large Study over the next few months, and 
questions being raised about ICANN's structure and function in many other 
contexts."
