You're right, but that's not what I said.

I guess the completeley technically correct statement in this case would have
been "only your registrar is able to create, delete, and modify your host
records in whois.internic.net, and hence, your nameservers' glue records in
the GTLD servers".

Another registrar could do whatever it wants with its own database, and
that's exactly what NSOL does.  The only way to fix this is to do your part
to make NSOL 'shape up or ship out'.  Transfer your domains to other 
registrars and encourage your customers to do the same.
