Try:

	drechsau at geeks.org
	drechsau at visi.com

for addresses that have/had been on this list dating back years.

I list an example below for you.

I want to invalidate your point in that as far as I know, there has
never been a requirement to physically go to a meeting to have
opinions heard.

I apologize for being antagonistic.  I hate repeating myself, and this
thread is full of fail for such repeating.  The mantra hasn't changed,
the issues are the same issues that are 9+ years old.

Opinion: I don't believe the playing field is level within any
tolerance of practicality.

You have your opinion.  That doens't make you right and me wrong, nor
the converse.

Proof: this issue is old and repetitive, without movement to resolve
the long standing issues of organizations holding blocks they do not
need (I said 'need', not 'want'), nor have used (since allocated) to
the same levels that the rest of us normal netizens are held to.

back to topic...

I have participated multiple times via email.

here is something from Sept 14th, 2000:

Look familar?

(kudos to the ARIN folx maintaining the list - the pipermail interface
is one of the best I have seen in terms of look)
