Problems with rubytalk.com

I was searching for some ruby info via google, and clicked a link to
an article archived on rubytalk.com and got a placeholder/advertising
page instead. Is it possible that the domain got jacked?

Here's the output of nslookup on my machine:

rubytalk.com

Non-authoritative answer:
rubytalk.com internet address = 63.251.83.53
rubytalk.com nameserver = dns3.name-services.com
rubytalk.com nameserver = dns4.name-services.com
rubytalk.com nameserver = dns5.name-services.com
rubytalk.com nameserver = dns1.name-services.com
rubytalk.com nameserver = dns2.name-services.com

You want ruby-talk.org instead.

Ok, that works. But rubytalk.com must have been in use at some point.
Google searches find messages on that site, ex:

http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=site%3Arubytalk.com&btnG=Search&meta=

I ended up finding what I wanted through newsgroups, but this may not
be so good for newbies.

rubytalk.com used to point to rubytalk.org. It expired and was not renewed,
so now it is gone.

Google searches find messages on that site, ex:
