    For anyone that does not know, evidentally aircraft have flown into the World Trade Center buildings in New York. I'm short on details right now myself, as all the news sites seem to be "slashdotted." This is nuts!

    Maybe they should list Rebel.com on sale at Creabiz.com.

    The Web is crowded with websites that are no longer taken care of because of owners going out of business, or lacking revenue to maintain their site.

    Creabiz.com is bringing new perspectives to the web by offering companies or individuals the means to buy or sell existing web sites, and take advantage of the rising opportunities in the current market.

    The Rebel.com owners might be able to get some money back with this site.
