It should also be noted that there are numbers of "signatories" that 
have disavowed all knowledge of their "participation" and "support" of 
this submission. In other words, there is very little to indicate that 
the MarkMonitor submission is also the formal position of all those that 
appear to have co-signed it. The document appears to be more indicative 
of an over-zealous vendor creating a facade of support for their own 
position than it is a unified response from 112 like-minded entities.

If we're going to take this submission seriously, let me know - I'll put 
together 4 million or so signatures that show that my customers support 
our submissions as well. (I could probably automate this slightly by 
putting an opt-in clause in our registration agreement that causes our 
customers to delegate their politic view points to us for management. 
Maybe we could use this to swing some local and state elections as well).
