Have you considered how the 128-bit DNS is used with other protocols, besides IPv6 ? 4. What has the ICANN Board and staff decided on this ?...isn't there an ASO ? 5. Have you seen a 2 dimensional object ?...such as a shadow....length and width and no depth... ...are you familiar with 3D ?....length, width, and depth ? 6. Have you read the book Flatland by Edwin Abbott ? http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=flatland 7. Have you spent much time learning about the Next Generation Internet ? ...3D and the governance structures...etc... http://www.ActiveWorlds.com http://www.OuterWorlds.com http://www.cyboria.com 8.
