The University of Colorado at Boulder has bought 27 .xxx websites to keep pornographers from buying them, according to the Boulder Daily Camera.

However, the newspaper said CU did not manage to get one of the domain names it wanted, Colorado.xxx.

Colorado.xxx, which is a variation of the school's Colorado.edu domain, was acquired by Las Vegas brothel owner Edward Yeager.

If you go to that web address, you'll find a website for nudists including nude beaches, nudist legal rights and news for nudists.

Yeager told the newspaper he is willing to sell the domain name to CU for about $1,000.

CU did buy CU.xxx, Buffs.xxx, Ralphie.xxx and two dozen of other domains.
