World Thoughts writes:        "Let's get this straight: Registering AmericanAirlines.biz is cybersquatting and extortion." ... Sorry, but only if the website infringes existing trademarks! If someone is using americanairlines.com to offer his teddy for sale, this wouldn't mean any infringement against AmericanAirlines trademarks (I hope they don't sell Teddys ...) It is that way, even if they don't like it. Regards, Friedrich
