Re: [ALSC-Forum] ICANN Announcement -- At-Large List Names Sought; ALSC Forum Operation Extended

[Jefsey Morfin]

I see that you have a certain sense of humour.
I appreciate your lack of response to my last mail to you.
I thank Thomas to execute the salvation plan.
I only regret that Esther has wasted her money while we could have done 
great things with it.

>dmichel@atlargestudy.org by 20 May 2002. The submissions will be compiled

>For privacy reasons, it is not possible to transfer the current ALSC list to

>ICANN urges Internet users to participate in the forum(s) of their choosing.
