But in all seriousness, I don't agree and I never agreed with your attitude, which was ".xxx won't happen. Period. No point in wasting time talking about it.".
Believe it or not, it's true that webmasters opinions have an influence on ICANN. You may say "no, that can't be true", but neverheless it is true although I don't feel like prooving this now for various reasons.
Bottom line = adult webmasters opposition to .xxx HAS an influence on ICANN. It depends however, how STRONG this opposition is and it also depends on other circumstances, just like Bossman said few posts earlier.

There is alot more on the table than just porn, so I think you are right.

So although there might be hidden forces within the adult industry trying to push for .xxx approval (like Juicy said in this thread and many others said before as well) that still doesn't mean that they will win.
I'm far from an attitude that ".xxx won't happen, period". But I put so much thought (and not only thought

) into it, that when looking at all the arguments and all the circumstances, I don't predict ICANN approving .xxx this time. Nevertheless .xxx still scares me - I gave it 35% chances to be approvced and that's why I still worry about this subject.
