What, mayhaps, would be the purpose of Cpq's registration of "A6T9T.net" My Dear Dr. Watson, it is one of my observations of human nature, that when someone wishes to encrypt a message - they invariably substitute figures for letters. Let us suppose A6T9T was an encryption. What might the underlying word be? The 6 and 9 appear to be a mirror-image - I would suggest that they have no numerical value and are there for symbolic reasons only. But what do they substitute for? ALTA is too short. This is one piece in a puzzle. We know that CPQ has become interested in using the appendage "net" instead of "com" lately.
