Being a Clueless Attorney also Lowers Scores
While papers like this (in 2004) might appear
to be from informed and good-intentioned people,
they clearly do not know what is really going
on. They do not understand free-market forces
in the North American market.
=============
"Competitive Bidding for new gTLDs" is the focus of part three of a three-part series based on a study prepared by Karl M. Manheim, Professor of Law at Loyola Law School and Lawrence B. Solum, Professor of Law at University of San Diego. Special thanks and credit to Hastings Communications and Entertainment Law Journal, Vol. 25, p. 317, 2004.
==============
They make the assumption that the market-place
is going to sit on the side-lines and wait to
watch round-two (reruns) of the academic/government tango-quango, with the
same 52 Taliban Society insiders calling
the tune. That is not going to happen for
several reasons:
1. The Taliban Society has had their shot and
they clearly have demonstrated they do not
know what the marketplace wants. They also have
demonstrated how insidious they are and the
lengths they will go to maintain their control.
Their track-record is not part of history.
2. The Taliban Society is now clearly marked
and documented and if any member of that group
of 52 (OK 51) were to ever get remotely close
to any business deal of any future value, the
deal would end. This is as cut-and-dried as
saying, with 100% certainty, that Saddam Hussein will never again be a leader of anything.
3. Any business that The Taliban Society does
manage to develop, will be happily converted
by free-market forces and if there is any
resistance to that conversion, the free-market
will simply abandon the scene, leaving The
Taliban Society with yet another mess to clean
up, at the Society's expense.
While it is true that The Taliban Society may
continue to enjoy years and years of world
travel to remote places where they exploit
some new population of uneducated people,
they will never be able to return to the
free markets found in North America where
people will continue to flock for fair and
open competition, not the rigged games staged
by The Taliban Society.

Thank you Michael.
I was aware that it was this - just wanted to make a point.
It seems the god-like judgment of a moderator has lasting effect - karma has been negative at some time.
However, we must not let any reader think I have been swearing at or libelling these poor moderators.
I believe this assault on my karma was all for the terrible crime of putting forward informed opinion - to which some were unable to give reasoned logical response.
Looks like they wished to muffle me.
Seems it is very easy to upset some people ;-)
