In addition to my comment made through the pgMedia site, I would add the following: As an Internet Administrator for the last two years, I have always been skeptical of the centralized, government controlled nature of DNS on the Internet. I would very much like to see this system moved in to the private sector (perhaps with minimal subsidies) and decentralized. Thank you for your time and attention.

Just recently there were five more Top Level Domain names added to the meager list of already available options. The administration that guides that standard admits to its inadequacy system and to the technical feasibility of the pgMedia proposal. Therefore, unless there are some moral or political reasons that we are not aware of in a democracy, there should be no obstacles in adopting and implementing their idea.

My idea is to give all adult sites a .xxx so all filters will work right. I think this must be the only way we the people can let our kids and teens use the web. A law should be writen to enforce it so no links can be to any adult site that is not one itself. A good ext. can be .ADT or .21 or some form. We can't stop the sex but we can keep it hidden away. No jail time but to be kicked off the net is a good way. and to setup a page to report crime on the net. It a new world and the goverment has got to do its part in it. Already child porn and drugs are being sold over the net, whats next? I have lots of ideas and I wish I had some say in what would be the new police dept. (World-U.S. Net Police) I would police the net. Thanks for reading, Ron Vikara

Please stay out of this issue, in most casses the market will take care of itself. There is no way to justify government intervention on this issue also. PLEAS STAY OUT OF OUR LIVES AND LEAVE US ALONE! YOU COULD CUT YOUR BUGET BY 90% BY ISSUING THE NATIONAL MESSAGE OF: CONSUMER BE WARE! Spend the 10% left on the educating of the public on bad products, and telling the American people that it is time that they thought for themselves, and need to look into any thing that they spend money on. That is all that is needed, so stay out of the the internet naming issue. Mark Gierth
