DNS is setup as a tree, but it just as easy could be
a shrub. Or maybe a tree made up of alphabetical shrubs. DNS is a good
thing, TLDs are good things, but artifically making TLDs rare and then selling exclusive
contracts (i.e. monopolies) to sell domains in them is just wrong. All a DNS name
is supposed to be is an address. Just that. Not a business plan, not
a monopoly, just an address. It just converts names to IPs. Kinda like
street addresses would convert lat/long to names, but you don't see people scrambling
for the right to sell addresses that end in 'main street'. Dan
