David:
Ask Rod whether he favors awarding the .xxx TLD to conform to the finding of the Independent Review Process that its denial was discriminatory and unfair. If he fudges, press him on what it means for ICANN's Board to ignore the results of the first independent review process. Does it provide proper accountability? 

You could also ask whether he thinks it's a good idea to allow powerful interest groups keep trying to re-write the policies governing the new gTLD introduction. 

You could ask whether he thinks it's time to find a new Ombudsman, given the biased treatment we received from him, and the incident he was involved in revealing a lack of civility.

Lots of fun you could have up there....
