<html><body><span style="font-family:Verdana; color:#000000;
font-size:10pt;"><div>Not to be a pain, but I have been reading this and many
other Internet related lists for a long time. In that time, I have seen
everything from conspiracy theories to personal anecdotes that imply serious
problems at Go-Daddy, but even the most impassioned anecdote or accusation
means very little until someone independently looks over the books and checks a
few random private registrations for validity and confirms that every SLD held
off the market under the pretense of private registrations does indeed have a
legitimate and paying person behind it. When that is done, we may convict or
exonerate with better certainty. Until then, we may call for investigation by
an and all legal jurisdictions that apply, but we can not reasonably convict on
what is known today.</div>
