To single out one record, look it up with "xxx", where xxx is one of the
of the records displayed above. If the records are the same, look them
up
with "=3Dxxx" to receive a full display for each record.

It looks like facebook is having DNS troubles. The www.facebook.com =20
subdomain is delegated to some servers that are no longer answering. =20
Also apps.facebook.com is a cname to www-college.facebook.com which =20
gets no reply.
