I'd like to point out that it's interesting that this email is coming
from the @internic.net address, not worldnic.net or some netsol domain.

If you are part of Network Solutions and going to promote the company and
not the organization (InterNIC) which was temporarily entrusted to you by
the NSF contract -- why are you sending this email from an InterNIC address
and not being clear about who you are and who you represent.

I don't believe that anyone should be sending email from @internic.net if
it isn't for the purpose of processing and registring domain names and the
temporary business arrangement which was granted to Network Solutions (and
2 other companies) under the National Science Foundation contract.
