I don't think that's a reasonable summary of what I care about, for the record :-)

I understand the context. I was really talking to a wider context, which is the difficulty with words we're used to seeing in the DNS when they are used in other name resolution protocols -- I was trying to suggest that the wider context has more to do with the use of multiple naming systems than it does with the overloading of individual terms.

I don't have a kill file, George, but if I did the world would be a gloomier and more tedious place with you in it.
