    That guy has balls of steel to do something like that, esp. since the police will now have him singled out. I can imagine if he so much as jaywalks in Bluff City he'll be at the receiving end of a Taser and some nightsticks.

    Why doesn't the government agency not use a .gov domain?

    I wonder if its a felony to buy a domain name out from under a well menaing Po-Po.

    It will be soon. You will have to use a foreign address, causing an international incident.

    In reply to RedS13Coupe:

    Local municipalities don't get federal web addys, so they probably should have had a .state.IL.us address. Maybe they had a friendly redirect from a more easy to remember address that was stolen

    It's pretty hard to let a domain expire. That guy must have been on medical leave for a loooooooong time.

    Am I the only one that after reading this story went to Who Is and looked to see when GRM.com expires?

    That's right Tom, we're on it. We'll get it for 'ya eventually.
