Slight correction.
J-M Margot owns www.julesverne.org
He picked it up at the end of February.
(Note:it does have an annoying "pop-up" from "www.angelfire.com" who
appears to be hosting his site)

www.julesverne.com has been owned by a company for a long time that sells
addresses, and runs a "celebrity website", but no mention of Jules Verne
once you get there. What a waste!

www.julesverne.net appears to be owned by a UK company that also sells
domain names!
