Personally, I think the person that owned the domain name before was ROBBED, and at the very least he should be compensated financially for the real value of the domain name. Ill boycott anything the Morrison estate tries to do with that site, and chances are, they wont do a damned thing with it. Disgusting.

Keeping up with the renewals & hosting fees. Some people don't understand the hours of time doing all the programming, layout, research, maintenance, updates, promotion & management of website that continues to induce heavy traffic. It's my opinon that they should offer him compensation for all of his investment of time & money over these many years. Also a lump sum just for releasing the URL to the Morrison Estate Owners. Has A URL appraisal been done yet? It is definitley needed if not. The value of this URL obviously will increase ten fold over the years, since the namesake is such a global historic Legend/Icon. Thank you - a concerned Webmaster Looks like this Mr. Sentieri fellow has owned this domain name & website for approx. 13 years… Keeping up with the renewals & hosting fees.

No one is allowed to take possession, of your home...unless you sign an agreement to sell it, at a fair market price...That's the free enterprise system in action.
