Grandpa from The Simpsons could face cybersquatting charge

More than one Old Coot in America

AN EPISODE from popular cartoon series The Simpsons could result in Grandpa Simpson being accused of infringing on someone else's domain name.

As you can see from the snap of the TV picture that one of our readers, Carey H, Grandpa is fulminating about how the whole world has gone to rack and ruin.

To that end Grandpa Simpson apparently set up his own web site, oldcoot.com.

But unfortunately that domain is registered to a real person, Samuel L. Bowman, based in Sharpsville, IN, who operates a business called Granpabusiness.com.

This should be an interesting one to watch. ยต
