Yes, we have to do something about it. Recently, I have seen 
several large ISPs got affected by Internic. 

I know for sure that both Aimnet.net and Internex.net are
putting on hold, despite the fact that Aimnet.net already 
paid and our check was cashed 2 days before they put us 
on hold. 

You just cannot imagine how many our customers are getting
affected. CRL, Aimnet, and Internex likes are major ISPs with
hundred and thousands of corporate customers using their 
services.

George, we are fully behind you on this.
