something *very* strange is going on.  the worldnic servers have
been giving delayed or no results for days now.  and nsi is hoping
we and the wsj/nyt won't notice.

i don't think this

    roam.psg.com:/usr/home/randy> doc -p -w worldnic.net
    Doc-2.1.4: doc -p -w worldnic.net
    Doc-2.1.4: Starting test of worldnic.net.   parent is net.
    Doc-2.1.4: Test date - Mon Apr 25 14:20:45 HST 2005
    ;; res_nsend: Protocol not supported
    DIGERR (UNKNOWN): dig @a.gtld-servers.net. for NS of worldnic.net. failed
    ;; res_nsend: Protocol not supported
    DIGERR (UNKNOWN): dig @b.gtld-servers.net. for NS of worldnic.net. failed

is the worldnic problem, but could be.  but it is a problem.  (i
generally ignore b root issues).

but it's probably time for us all to dump symptoms here and figure
it out as a community, as the dog with the bone ain't 'fessing up.
