    Subject: jerryfalwell.com now owned by Falwell
    
    I'm not sure how Falwell got control of Gary Cohn's domain name, but as of
    yesterday, following http://www.jerryfalwell.com leads to Falwell's
    ministries.
    
    You may remember a while back, Falwell had sued (unsuccessfully) to acquire
    the domain. I thought you might be interested in this development in the
    story. A whois shows:

        Domain servers in listed order:
    
        NS1.TRBC.ORG
        NS2.TRBC.ORG
    
    So this is a very recent development.
