Make sense but either I blotted it out of my mind or there was something else
going on.

In the directory where I found the templates are probably 300+ filled out
between 1995 and 1998. If we were cutting that many checks to Internic or
Netsol, I just don't remember. It was also before online credit card era for
those.

Maybe we just mailed the invoice to the end user and let them deal with it,
but doesn't sound like what we'd do. Normally we'd collect all the fees up
front including the 1st quarter or year of service. In that case the money
went from us to somewhere and I just don't rememeber doing it.

I think in 1999 is when they introduced the secondary registration services,
like register.com and tucows.com and you could do everything online with a
card.
