Yay!
What I suggest you do is quietly edit your front page with a link to the new site.
What they did was so darn crappy!
Oh, and continue to pursue getting access to your old domain name. The most direct is to change the DNS pointers so it goes to your new site (and in time, people simply use your new name). Use htaccess to rewrite any searches based on your old name to the new one.
If this is all content that can be copied and saves somewhere, always do so in case your new host is a pain.

Thanks! Having access to my files (particularly the healthcare page) saved me an enormous amount of work. Big relief.
I'm planning to do that very thing, Lynx. I'm going to go through today and save the remainder of the Blogger pages as HTML pages as an emergency back-up. Once I get the new site up and see that it's running smoothly, I am going to hide all of the content on the old site except the home page, and will put a "We've moved!" thing on there.
Never heard of htaccess, but will look into it. Thanks for the tip!

Well, I thought the new site was ready to go, but in testing today I ran into some issues. Every 3rd or 4th time that I load a page, the layout doesn't render properly (everything shifts; background does strange things). I've checked my code and don't see anything obvious that could be causing it, but I could be missing it.
I'd greatly appreciate it if a couple of volunteers could try loading and re-loading pages to see if does anything weird. The new site is here: www.tlpmarketplace.com.
