@ The only place people keep hearing this report is from you, over and

@ 

I have never made this claim....why would I...?
	I dispute the claim...
	I claim that the InterNIC should have plenty
	of money to fund these activities...
	That is why I suggest that the InterNIC
	remain as one unit and be cloned as a unit.

I suggest that you check with your "Board" and
other vocal members of the Internet community who
keep telling people that NSI no longer wants to fund
these activities, because NSI wants to position itself
for an IPO and enter the high stakes competitive
world of TLD registries with a huge advantage, lead
and market share...
