Did you know that there are 2 sex.coms ?

Electra and I saw that story yesterday morning and were debating whether to put it in. We didn't because as far as we could tell -- and this only took reading the article about six times -- it seems:

a) the reporter has no clue how the internet works

b) the reporter has no clue what the actual story is

c) the company buying the domain doesn't know how the internet works or who actually owns the domain

d) the same company does not seem to know they can be sued by Gary for infringement.

What it appears to me to be is that this company buying a domain for 11.4 mil and who gave 1/2 a mil already gave it to a Boston company who -- guess what?! -- don't own the domain! (Because Gary Kremen does.)

And apparently none of these morons, the company nor the reporter, are capable of doing a freaking WHOIS!!!!!
