Subject:	Good-We don't need more domains
Message:
Market Saturation and confusion. .com .net .org .info .biz is sufficient now and forever. All the new.net and .web folks wont like it, though... It's hard to justify investments in things that have no physical matter and are useless. I bought some .web names too (in additon to .to, .cc, .tv, etc.) And I bought generic terms. These names are useless: we really dont need more names: the fact that some of us have invested hard dollars in "concepts" does not justify a use for more TLD's. I am sure this is the primary motivation behind the pro new.net and .web ($$$ for getting in early) crowd...no mystery.
