Also both David Botton and myself have tried to by the adahome domain each time it comes up for renewal. The last time, it was past expiration for about 30 days before the prior owner renewed it. I recommend that everyone remove links to adahome from their own pages since sites like google score (partially) based on number of sites linking to a site. If you want to link to it, do so in a non html link (plain text) and try to obscure the plain text a little so the google bots don't find it.
