[geeks] A differnet type of geek adventure....

[Michael A. Turner]

  	Ok instead of relating a story that has happened, I need advice on a
geek story that will happen. 
I just found out that I have gotten the name vabeach.info registered to me.
I currently live in Virginia Beach Va (vabeach). The reason I got this name
was so that I could cause the local goverment some heartburn about the
boneheaded things they do, and maybe leverage it into a cash sum down the
road if someone offers to buy me out :-). 
	What I need advice on is how can I secure this site so that it
cannot be snagged back from me by WIPO or some other legislative body. I
plan to get a site on it as fast as possible so that I can stake my claim
better. The site is basically going to be based on "The real INFO about
virginia beach" were I air all their dirty laundry for everyone to see.
Anyone got advice how to bullet proof against trademark claims and such?
	
	Also were can I find a hosting site that won't buckle under pressure
for this domain? I have a couple leads but some advice would be helpfull on
who to go with. Don't want to have to fight with them if I try to move it
later. My work could host, but since we do a lot of bussiness with the city
of virginia beach my boss is way against it. 

	Looking forward to your theorizing about this.
