Everyone knows you are a troll. This being said, do not bother to reply, because your next post will not go through. Your comments are out of topic. Please lose your US-centric view that everything and everyone expects .com. There are also a billion of Internet users outside the US who rely on their ccTLD or other TLDs, and only marginally care about .com. Jim or whoever you are,

The I* theocracy censored the root. In my opinion, everything can be built on the .COM platform. .COM becomes the .ROOT. As you may notice, the legacy roots get less and less traffic. Also, more and more DNS traffic goes to tagging services such as http://www.OpenDNS.com. Introducing thousands of new TLDs, as if nothing has changed from the 80s, is very irresponsible in my opinion. The I* theocracy censorship of the root has been more irresponsible. They have used that to tax netizens, and to fund their junkets. Follow the money....or is that .MONEY ? Ten years ago, or actually before that, thousands of new TLDs could have been added.
