What would you like clarified...

	1. 50 States in the United States...is that clear ?
	2. 50 InterNIC clones....is that clear ?
	3. 3 TLDs per Clone...is that clear ?
	4. 3 TLDs (Infrastructure, Commercial, Free[1])...is that clear ?
	5. One /8 space to manage...is that clear ?
	6. $250,000 NSF Intellectual Infrastructure grant...is that clear ?

[1] a "psuedo TLD" could be a TLD....for example, in the State of
	Illinois, the Illinois InterNIC could have IL.US as the Free TLD.

Yes...that is why I would like to see it managed
by companies that are insulated from failing
but provide opportunities to BOTH the commercial
and government sectors and ALL 50 States...

...what about this is not clear...?
