        'cause i am a trusting sort... i tend to believe the DNS.
        even more so when i can validate the signed replys... 
        the absence of DNS entries (forward or reverse) leads me
        to beleive that address literals are still a useful attribute...
        (although I find it tough to justify using octal representations)
