You don't get the big bucks unless you have greased the skids behind closed doors to make .xxx mandatory for adult. This was all decided before they went public.

I agree, but most people not only think it will never happen, they don't think that was Lawley's motivation.
I know one of his biggest justifications by ICM to try to get .xxx put through was to "protect the kids" (everytime I hear that I want to take a baseball bat to the person who believes it). How do you protect the kids with .xxx when nothing changes on .com?? You don't, the argument is dead right there. Only way to "protect the kids" is to move porn off of .com and block .xxx.
Well the other way is for parents to actually do their damn jobs and raise their kids properly, but we know that will never happen.
