Re: A point of agreement (Re: [ga-roots] response to responsetoresponse)


Nope you would be wrong on that one, think about the early court system of England,
crossing the well and the gavel.  The board was the bar, which came to be the bench,
which we can ask to approach, within the public house, which became the court house.

This should be under rules. No on second thoughts it is appropriate under roots because
it has to do with the roots of our language, like names.  Wow it just hit me, Why do
they call them ROOT SERVERS? come on this deserves an answer from one of you who were
around when the named them.  (I could have just gone to netsol domain policy list and
looked it up, but that is gone)
