[grc] GRC Web site opportunity

[Paul Bame]

As I recall, KGNU grabbed grradio.org because grassrootsradio.org was 
taken; and I seem to recall that someone in GRC had spoken to the owner 
back then (1999?) and they were not interested letting it go. Now the 
owner is obscured so it is harder to figure out who they are.

But I'm afraid I derailed the original question: what should be done 
with grradio.org?
