Re[5]: [ga-roots] How the sky might fall

Hello Jefsey,

Don't blow the .biz issue out of proportion.

A few congress critters wanted to ask some questions about.  They did,
had their questions answered, and seem to have been satisfied with
those answers (they haven't pushed the issue at all since).

And there is no lawsuit to defend against either, nor is any other
government body, USG or otherwise, supporting your view.

So let's stick to facts, and not fantasy.
