Re: Registrars....

Ummm, last time I checked, Australia enters the new day before Europe and 
then America.  Seems to me that Australia is in the first third of a 24 
hour productivity cycle.

Australia is well-placed to catch the American cycle as it powers down at 
the end of its business day, do its business, then start prompting Europe 
as that continent awakens.  With Europe and America working in tandem owing 
to the (relatively) smaller time zone difference, Aussies are well-placed 
to catch the rising sun and tide for the new day.

The difficulty in the scenario you present are the different laws and 
business outlooks of the three respective regions.  Unless you understand 
and appreciate these differences, you run the risk of failure even before 
you get off the ground.
