Thank you. [1]

I registered it back on October 16th, 1998 because
1) I received a "cease-and-desist" letter from a law firm claiming I
was infringing upon a trademark I had no idea was even trade
marked on a webpage I created;
2) the owner of said website said I should get my own domain so *he*
didn't have to deal with trademark issue;
3) CONNER.COM was already taken by some odd-ball company making some
form of computer storage device and wouldn't give it up;
4) SPC.COM was also taken by some odd-ball magazine [2] that
wouldn't give it up;
5) CONMAN.ORG was available. CONMAN because among a small set of
friends, my nickname was "Conman" [3].
So that's how I obtained conman.org.
-spc (So, I got there early, but not early enough ... )
[1] For those curious, you can take a look at:
https://github.com/spc476/LPeg-Parsers
And they're all available via LuaRocks.
[2] Time Magazine. No, really.
[3] Because my last name was 'Conner' and said set of friends were too
lazy to call me by my first name, Sean, nor by Connerman, being
three rather silly sylables.
