Florida Domainers to meet with Senator Nelson

[Muhammad Mustafa]

Just received it 2 days ago from ICA, since I am not from Florida and can't attend this meeting, I wanted to spread more awareness about this meeting.
quoting from E-mail:


((Florida Domainers to meet with Senator Nelson

I am organizing a group of Florida domain investors and developers and working with Phil Corwin to get a meeting with Senator Bill Nelson, a cosponsor of the Snowe bill. I have already contacted ICA members in Florida about this meeting, but we invite other Florida residents to join us. Reply to this email to be added to the list of people interested in meeting with Nelson. If you employ people in Florida in a domain business, we would especially like to for you to accompany us.
We are making progress in Washington and I will be publishing an update article soon about our work in opposition of the Snowe bill. Thank you to all who have helped by writing their Senators and contributing to ICA.))

I think you can contact them via: info_ica@internetcommerce.org to confirm your attendance, it will be an important meeting against Snowe Bill, I believe in that!

Most likely Talahassee, the state capital. Too bad I'm over a 7 hour drive and too poor to go or else I would.

Email sent.

If it's central or south fl, I might be able to go. Draggar, I'll give you a ride if we can coordinate it. Very busy myself with regular work though.

Thank you Muhammad Mustafa for posting about the meeting.

To all, we haven't yet arranged the meeting. I am currently measuring interest in order to attempt to arrange a meeting. Please pm me if you are interested. We will try to get the meeting in Florida, but might have to go to Washington DC. Please let me know if you can attend in South Florida, Central Florida or Washington DC since I do not know yet where we will be able to meet.

South Florida - West Palm / Ft Lauderdale or Miami? I could do that as long as work doesn't get in the way.

[Michael Collins]

I will post a notice here when we get a meeting scheduled.

Moniker is in Central Florida, see if Monte wants to come along?

[Michael Collins]

Thank you. Monte is on my list of people who want to meet with Nelson. I still do not have an answer from Senator Nelson. I will follow up with his staff today.

I thought he was in Pompano Beach / Fort Lauderdale area?

Oops! Sorry, I was thinking of a different company that operates out of Winter Park.

I have still not heard anything from Nelson's staff. I presume that they have perceived that there is not much support for the Snowe bill and that it will probably not receive a hearing. In that case, there isn't much need to meet with us to hear our opposition. I will keep trying to set up a meeting, but the meeting may not be exclusively about the Snowe bill.
