His assertion, that the interNIC ought to follow it's own published procedures and follow up on reports of bogus data, attempting correction, and in extremis, deleting such records, seems to stand on it's own. It's also apparent from others' comments that they do not, which does not surprise me at all, given _my_ past experiences with the InterNIC. Have A Nice Day, Dean. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
