Subject:	I would argue - as this is the TRUTH
Message:
You talk about cat.biz Giving a trademark priority in an OPEN TLD is abridging free speech. For instance - Catipillar Tractors get priority, before you, for the word CAT. This is against the First Amendment rights. So everybody can see - the American Government do not give a fart for peoples rights. There would be nothing wrong in having a closed TLD for trademarks - cat.reg for instance. As this would then stop the restriction on people using these words in open TLDs. This is the premise behind WIPO.org.uk - if anybody says this is not the truth - please explain why.
