Yes.  I also happen to remember that Todd reported the DNS registry as expiring
on the 18th.  _One_day_ before the original post in this thread.  I'm not an
expert, but I wouldn't put it outside the realm of possibility that the DNS
registration might have glitched as a result of passing the listed expiration

getting a bit tiring.  Calm down a bit, okay?  I'm not saying that my hypothesis
is guaranteed to prove true, but I have to request that you stop jumping on my
case about protocol when you disagree with my ideas.  Can you do that?
