Dear Rick:  As a matter of fact, since ICANN has never established a rule 
against registrars warehousing names, I can see that each of us has 
opportunities for grabbing our own attractive deletes;-}  There is so much 
about this issue which has been left floating, escrows, codes of conducts, 
warehousing.

Thank you for your thoughtful analysis.  You are excused for tipping over 
your water pitcher;-)
