Hardly. Your direction of believing that a broad range or organizations'
supporting ISOC's efforts somehow means that ISOC "controls" all those
organizations hasn't changed and my reaction to it hasn't changed.
The sigh was for the continuing, silly confusions. One has to do with your
confusing correlation with causation -- or otherwise dismissing the import
of support from a large number of independent organizations and
individuals. The other has to do with your viewing ISOC as a bogeyman,
while entirely ignoring the seriously damaging role NSI has
played. Sighing is what such silliness engenders.
