After sitting in on 2 years of dns wars, i'm finding this approch less and
less appealing. technology [read dns, spam, spki] is meeting the political
boundries of meat space. 

nature doesn't know the consept of borders, they are created by men,
stained by ego, and paid for in blood. the internet doesn't know about geo
political boundries and atempting to teach either is a *very* painful
process.
