    I want the list of applicants for a .biz domain. That way, I can make sure that I have no money invested in them, for clearly they will be going out of ".bizness" due to a complete lack of sense.

    The steady flow of spam mails praising the advantages of a .biz domain has come to a point where it is even higher than the number of mails trying to convince me to buy a penis enlarger or to increase my (hairy) breast size. Now one can win a friggin' .biz domain at a lottery. Does that mean we'll soon see happy winners of the [fill-in-your-state]-lottery walk away with the latest John-Holmes-kit(tm)?

    "... they get your money whether you "win" the domain or not."

    Isn't that true for all lotteries??
