The dns-ok.us site is getting crushed from all the sudden media interest.
One wonders why it's so hard to get the media interested when it would be *helpful*. DNS Changer gets traction like 3 days before the drop dead date, IPv6 gets on the radar *after* we run out of v4 /8's to give to regionals, etc...
Reactive is easier to justify to the powers that be than proactive.
It's easier to justify *not* being smart enough to deal with the problem when it doesn't cause a major disruption? Have we venerated stupidity *that deeply* in the US? Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
