Shifting away from it to the Sao Paulo get-together, merrily kicking the ICANN football around "because it's there", winding endless yarns around WSIS, etc. is only delaying a conversation that people like you and your government should have started long ago. The world is watching and waiting for those like you in the US who think this needs fixing to hold the bull by the horns without ricocheting around. Non-USians may have ideas but no standing to undertake it.</span></font></div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:18.0pt">Dear George and Shatan,<br>
I usually don't share all Jefsey's visions (cause either I cannot understand them or I have no time enough to read their abstracts). But on this point I fear YOU have to give the world some evidence. Otherwise you could appear as trying to reverse the burden
of proof.<br>
<br>
The Patriot Act + NSA revelations ARE evidences for the whole world.<br>
That is the very sad and tricky situation we have to face.<br>
