I don't understand why the author is so upset? Seems like someone wanted do buy something of his, they couldn't reach an agreement, and both parties stopped talking. "I started to understand that Mr. Wolfram simply needed a good information designer -- not another domain name. I tried to tell him that. I tried to offer my services, which at the time, I thought were most excellent. But Mr. Wolfram's assistant insisted that they needed my domain (I know, I know -- it's the marketing people...) So I went to my calculater and figured that those 44 domains they already bought had cost them $3080 to buy plus $1540 per year to maintain! Wow, they have a domain name budget! So I decided to base the price on Dr. Wolfram's net worth (I figured $100,000 was a fair point to start), and, in addition, I decided to ask for perpetual use of the email addresses eric@wolfram.org, eric@wolfram.com, and the web domains eric.wolfram.com and eric.wolfram.org." Honestly my response would be pretty similar to the assistant's: "no thanks"
