Subject:	We care that art.shop would market better!
Message:
Just because you don't care -- doesn't mean the rest of the world doesn't. I refuse to take a "second-rate" name (with dashes or some other gimmick to try to get the name I really wanted) or a substitute for something I really wanted. Why can't I have art.shop? or art.store? or art.show? With TLDs the possibilities become endless. But in the "dot com" world - you just get used to making compromises. You can't really have the name you want - so you just settle for something that works. Your argument is weak. You must be a ".com" reseller ??? END THE NSI monopoly of com/net/org NOW !!!!!!
