i've always found the list at http://puck.nether.net/netops/nocs.cgi to be most helpful, including reaching noc@home. Only when it comes to routing issues/problems, not security - "[d]DoS-in-progress" issues. :| 90% of those "NOCs" are help desk phone numbers, and it takes at least good 30-60min+ to get to the real NOC/people, if ever.

Youre lucky. Ive noticed an increasing trend that the NOC phone numbers listed on corporate web pages come back as disconnected/RNA, and the emails bounce "no such user". Real cute, especially when you're being ddos'd. whois data is even worse. I suspect upwards of 25% of whois contact data is worthless. -Dan
