I ran a WhoIs on www.claypoolpersimmonfarms.com and
that domain name is not currently owned by anyone and is available for
purchase. Just though you might like to know.
About two years ago Jim Claypool's son created
a web site, (WWW) Claypoolpersimmonfarms.com with the James Claypool persimmon
breeding story on it. About a year ago the site was discontinued.
I
understand there are scum who pick up the names of sites that are dropped in
the hopes the former owners will want it back and pay bug bucks to get it
back. Someone has now picked up that domain name and is using it as
advertising with porn links. I haven't personally checked this out but totally
trust my source.
If any of you have web sites with links to
Claypoolpersimmonfarms.com you may wish to turn that link off.
