which reminds me about that joke about "in theory" ... "I want to move to
Theory, because everything works there."

I like Elliot's post.

I'm not a fan of a lot of the recent Tucows decisions, I'd be happy if
they just focused on their core registration business and quit introducing
new products which allow non-techies to compete with us, but I do like his
logic and his answer. Like it or not, we don't live "In Theory" :-P

If competition and the free market were not supposed to be a good thing,
then Verisign would still have a monopoly on the .com/net/org registRAR
business. In that light, we need to live with the way things are, and
adapt as best we can.
