So, it doesn't cost much to look up .net, .info, .biz. Unless you're really
concerned that you'll run out of suitable names, then why not try a lookup on
these others and see if they also get registered. In addition, an experiment
on finding a similar concept one can look up and seeing if someone also then
registers "small town name" farmersmarket.com after it's been looked up would
provide some modest evidence that it's not a coincidence. Once is
happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action.
