Subject:	The real solution is to get rid of TCP/IP and use UUCP
Message:
Get rid of domains? How bout we just do away with DNS all together and hey, let's ace TCP/IP as well and all go back to UUCP, pathalias and regional mapping coordinaters. There was never a problem with them such as what we have with DNS. Dumb. Just plain dumb. Like raw oniopns, this bad idea keeps repeating every six months. It's a non-starter.              -- The probability of human error in a complex system is a constant.
