this is an april fools hoax. do a whois on www.networksolutions.com and you will see that this site is available for registration. which means it does not exist YET

Oh, darn, they caught me with this nonsense last year also.

They even reference the fact that they are a hoax by their name, freebluesky. Every state has what are called blue sky securities laws, the purpose is to prevent unscrupulus marketers from selling people "blue sky" or in other words, nothing at all. By the way, I've got a bridge in Brooklyn I'm selling

I am interested in making an offer, how many miles do I get if I close on the transaction?

wat! kno fre-blu ski? arturo es sadined bi thes knews. mebe arturo jus keep tri-eng an sea ef he git sum blu-ski bucs.

It is not true arturo, there is really is a lot of Free Blue Sky out there. You just need to head on up here to Seattle on the right day (nobody is sure what that day is) and I'll give you all the Free Blue Sky you want.

Anyway I still have lots and lots of Free Blue Sky points in my account from last year.

What do you mean there is no whois?

Geez Glen...thanks for confirming that.

It's registered folks, as Dornian states. This is the record NSI has:

The Domain Name Service (DNS) system changed last year due to the changes in the registration system that opens up competition at the Registrar level. Therefore you can't always get a final answer from NSI. You should be able to get the info above though, and then use that to go to the Registrar for that name and get the information you need (which Dorian posted above).

Whatever Freebluesky was, it was last year.

I can forgive those who believe in miracles, but not those who don't even notice a thread is one year old.

I only resurrected the thread for nostalgia, but I guess the concepts involved are ageless.

Happy April to all.

Sure NJDavid, but isn't starting a thread like that contradicting your own views of creating a SPAM forum, and also differentiating FT from "just another internet forum".

The thread was started a year ago. A lighthearted way to show how 'congas' are out of control on FT.

I brought it to the top as a reminder, never even guessing that anyone would take it serioiusly a second time.

If I am correct, then there are "NEW" members to this board since this "hoax" from last year.

I would guess lots of them did not know about it... and would take it seriously.

But I could be wrong..... that has happenned before.
