    ...wasted inquiries from DNS servers that don't know .elvis is not a TLD.

    hey, with opennic, .elvis could very well be a tld someday. ;)

    Why Slashdot's been taking so long to load all morning. Normally I open a browser window and it's there instantly... but today it's been taking so long I've just been giving up and going to other sites.

  3. Uh yea, it's cold by pyite · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Woke up this morning around 8:00 with every expectation of going to LinuxWorld. In fact, I'm staring at my admission badge right now. However, it's cold. It's very cold. And the thought of waiting for a train and walking several blocks from Penn station to Javitz made me chicken out. I would have liked to have gone, but maybe next year.
