Internet .org comment (just ignore if you dont care)

[mark kibort <mkibort@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Im going to hate myself for posting this , but I only want every one to
know =

that Im not trying to abuse the system as it all is new to me anyway.
besides, the below assessment of the internet commerce situation
does explain why there are so many  .org  type commercial sites.
Not because they cant police them, its because the internet is going
through
a transition.

Read below, or just scroll down and Ignore.   Thanks for all the warning,=
 =

but I think Im ok.
