Ira,
unfortunately, that leads to my maxim, never let a domain go -- at the 
very least renew it and park it,
you might make enough to pay the fees -- and definitely better for piece 
of mind.

BTW, that 'parked for free' means he is getting any revenue the park is 
producing, if it's just your old content, and maybe some for really good URL
