The NAR (National Association of Realtors) sent our buddies at RealtorGenius.com a cease and desist notice. Their domain violates the NAR trademark "REALTOR". Huh. Mayhap they should have gone after whoever has parked the domains "RealtorsStink.com" or "RealtorsSuck.com" or "FuckRealtors.com". Those would all seem just a wee bit more derogatory than RealtorGenius.com… One would think the NAR could find a better use of their time. And my dues. From RealtorGenius:
It was a lot of fun while it lasted as the site has won several awards just by its peers and is proud of that fact. We’ve not decided whether to move it, or just /close the domain. More to follow in the following days.
My comment there was:

I’ll gladly transfer it to you, no charge.If the NAR whines about that, tell them to take it up with the National Association of Rocketry, Nucleic Acids Research, NAR-anon, the hip-hop group NaR, or the Merrill Lynch S&P midcap 400 index fund that trades on the Amex under the symbol NAR…
Others opine: Bloodhound, Comeover.com, sellsius, 3 Oceans, Jonathan Dalton,
