Rocci Genealogy Tree

I made an offer today to Lenny Rocci to purchase rocci.com from him. The guy has owned the domain since 2000 and it doesn't expire until 2011! His site is permanently under construction and I offered to turn it into a Rocci genealogy tree where members of our family, from all over the world, can attempt to trace our roots. I have no idea if I am related to this Lenny Rocci or not... but wouldn't it be kind of cool to find out?

A quick google search shows Riva Rocci is a Belgium rock band and Rosanna Rocci is a German pop singer. It seems our Italian roots have grown all over the world. And there was an internist and pediatrician named Scipione Riva-Rocci that lived from 1863 until 1937. In a strange twist, my brother is James Rocci and there is also a James Rocci that is the President and CEO of Rocci Insurance Agency in Louisville, Ohio. David Rocci has a realtor website but it's pretty amateur right now.

I was also thinking that in addition to the family tree we could also create subpages for each family that registered with the site and they could have their own blogs and photo albums and whatnot. Hopefully this Lenny guy will transfer the domain to me so we can finally put it to some good use!
