wow! good to know there are some honest people - reminds me of the guy who
found my wallet right after I sold a car for cash, so it had about $1, 300
in it. Was Columbus day so banks were closed; hence I couldn't deposit the
money that day. Guy and his wife wouldn't take any money when I offered
when I met them to get back the wallet. Wife worked for a religious
institution, so only thing they would take was my donation to the
organization.

>I am sure I will be letting this person know that I got
her name in the next few weeks and if she isn't thrilled about having it
become a sort of "fan" site (something I was only vaguely familiar with
until you mentioned it) and would like possession of this domain with her
name, I will gladly give it to her immediately, without even charging her
the $7 or so it cost me to buy it.
Last year the Washington Post's bureaucracy messed up renewing the
WashingtonPost.com domain. A reader noticed and registered it
immediately. He then called the post to arrange transfering it back to
them. I bet a cybersquatter could have gotten $10,000s if they had
grabbed it first.
