.XXX delay and simple math

I just re-read M. Gallagher’s letter to the ICANN chairman regarding concerns about the proposed .XXX domain.  Have you noticed that these 6000 complaints represent only 0.002% of the current US population ? and 0.00009 % of the world population ? In which democratic context could such a small group block a process ?

This would be equivalent to having 9 Luxemburgers (total pop. 450,000) writing to complain. Would ICANN have taken that seriously and blocked a process to please 9 people ?

The Internet is for everyone and no netizens should get a better treatement than others.
