Currently, I'm talking to a couple of people in the computer news world
(one electronic, one electronic and print) about doing a nice expose-style
article.  Seems that we should be getting SOMETHING for our $100, no?

I forgot to mention that I've been in contact with Bode & Biddle as well;
the firm sueing NSI over the registration fee.  Seems that NSI's stance
(including email from NSI that specifically says they won't delete a domain
unless they don't pay) fits in nicely with the argument that NSI is a
"money-grubbing monopoly".
