It makes me wonder how UltraDNS got a contract to manage the domain on all of two nameservers hosted on the same subnet, given that they were supposed to have deployed "geographically diverse" (or something like that) servers. But then, we know ICANN smokes the crack liberally at times....
Just because they hosts are on the same subnet and are apparently behind the same end device for you doesn't make them non-geographically diverse if they are really anycast pods, does it? It really just means one anycast pod was down for a time :( It is one of the things that anycast makes difficult though :( Troubleshooting anycast from the outside is a bear.
