I was thinking the same thing... and what constitutes a "domestic address"?? 8) If he's talking USA only, it fails... I'm in Canada with both .com and .net addresses. As well, .edu is also out there in the "other country"! Does that mean everyone here with a .ca address needs to get one in his list to be considered domestic?? 8) Another one of those things that makes you go hmmmm....
