Members of the Board

I strongly oppose the creation of a new domain to serve those trafficking in 
pornography.  As a pastor, I have seen the devastating effects of pornography 
upon marriage and family.  Neither ICANN nor the company urging the 
establishment of this new domain are arguing that the .XXX domain would clean 
up the .COM domain and require all pornographers to move to .XXX.  The .COM 
domain is a cash cow for pornographers and they are not leaving it.  ICANN has 
no enforcement powers to make them leave and thus clean up .COM.  Pornographers 
would simply expand to .XXX and maintain their current .COM sites, perhaps 
doubling the number of porn sites and doubling their menace to society.

Please do not create a .XXX domain.

Sincerely,

Vernon Payne

Eureka Springs, AR 72632
