Hidden in the email below is a really important bit of data.

Lots of people on these lists talk on the lists, but rarely if ever goto the
actual meetings and work on the process.
Participation is more than a keyboard.  Its showing up and participating at
the meetings.

Personally I think ARIN could do more to get to rural areas and have 1 day
work shops, ala RIPE and others.

But that doesn¹t excuse people from showing up at the meetings and having
their voice heard.

If 100 little ISP¹s showed up at the October meeting and was unified on
their cause / statement, I suspect it would be HEARD LOUD AND CLEAR.
