I agree - That Domain name could ve worth $$$. Before I retired as an It
Vice President the company paid over $50,000 for several Domain Names. Don't
be to quick in giving the name up.

Phil: don't let that website go for free whatever you do..take the content
down, sit on it, whatever, but don't give it away lol.
It's probably worth 10K at least.

Subject: My Website Is Going Down

I started red white and blue.org 17 years ago; writing the entire = website
by hand using the html coding which I learned from Cathy Murtha. = At one
time, I owned 6 domain names and had at least three sites all = going at one
time.  For the last couple of years, and to some degree, I = haven't had the
enthusiasm to keep my personal site up and running.  = This is partly due to
my hands not being as strong as they once were, my = physical health not
being what it once was before all my surgical = procedures on my spine, and
just a lack of interest.  It is possible I = may change to another domain
name but I'd have to modify all the html = used in red white and blue and
I'm not currently considering that but it = could happen.  I was recently
contacted by a retired police officer.  = Due to experiences in his own
life, he wants to start a website that = will work with other websites, and
organizations, who help Fire = fighters, red, Emergency Medical personnel,
White, and police officers, = Blue.  He has been trying to find a sight that
would go with that theme = as a domain name when he ran across mine.
Frankly, I've been thinking = about letting the domain drop since it isn't a
high traffic site any = longer , and there is no sense in reinventing the
internet wheel when so = many other blind folks have put up their own fine
sites.  There is a lot = of good information out there.  I can't see trying
to maintain, or = reproduce, such other quality informational blind sites
since a lot of = other blind people are doing such a wonderful job.  In
short, in a few = days, or weeks, RedWhiteAndBlue.ORG will be under other
ownership but = doing great things for amazing people who need assistance
due to the = stress of their job as professionals.  I feel honored this
former cop = even asked me if I would be interested in helping them get
started.  So, = in other words, it all has come at the right time.  The
change of = ownership is in process so if any of you are using my site for a
home = page that comes up first thing, don't be surprise if you find it
missing = for awhile as the hand over is accomplished.  Thanks to everybody
who = has used Red White and Blue over the years.  If I come back up with =
another domain name and URL, I'll make that known.  My other site will =
remain as is for now and both sites are listed below.
