Superbad: What lives in my old domain

I wonder if there is some scheme out there to take over evolution minded domains and populate them with creationist drivel and ranting. That idea seems to be supported by what has risen in place of this blog over at http://evolutionbeach.org. The set of crap that now lives there consists of pointless anti-evolution raps by an anonymous poster that prohibits comments. Gack. Any ideas as to what to do?

Wow, that new site is something. It looks like your former domain is now hosting a bunch of articles by Adnan Okta, aka Harun Yahya, a wealthy Turkish campaigner against evolution, noted anti-semite, convicted criminal, and head of "a secretive Islamic sect." He made a splash among paleontologists last year by mailing out tens of thousands of copies of his Atlas of Creation, an incredibly lavish and basically insane 800-page volume, to scholars worldwide.

It also has some articles by Josh Greengerger, another prolific creationist, as well as some pieces that appear to be plagiarized in a semi-literate fashion from various other sources. What a mess.
