difficulty regarding (links pointing to) lists.plug.phoenix.az.us

[Mike Schwartz]

That web site "http://www.whatsmydns.net/",
seems to be pretty handy.

My results (a picture) have been placed here:
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4086870&id=664267723
... OR (if you do not have a facebook account [password] ), then you might
need to use this "free for all" URL:
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4086870&l=59c7504c82&id=664267723
(they call it a "public link".)

Does this tell us anything?
It seems suspicious to me.
