Actually Barry, I would make fun of you, regardless of any financial
interests, because your position is so idiotic.  You apparently
do not grasp the concept that Tonga is a sovereign entity performing
*at worst* as well as or better than other public registries in
spam related matters, or that NANOG is an entirely inappropriate forum
to discuss something not related to North American Operations at all.

In addition to the aforementioned KD Award, I am announcing Barry
as the first winner of the prized Jim Fleming Award, for delusional
behavior in a generous helping of posts on NANOG which annoy everybody.

By the way, if it seems I am not taking you seriously, you are entirely correct.

Karl
