But if you want to beat on my original point -- as I and others have 
noted, the townname.nj.us domains were also grabbed by speculators.  In 
other words, that wasn't an option, either.  I haven't tracked the 
process failure or the policy failure that gave rise to that situation, 
but it's very real.  I live in Westfield -- try www.westfield.nj.us.  
Then try some neighboring towns -- Kenilworth, Cranford, Fanwood, 
Summit, and more.

hmm.. www.ci.summit.nj.us certainly seems to reflect the
city of Summit, NJ.
