As pointed out by Rob Seastrom in private email, RFC2182 addresses things
of biblical proportions - such as dispersion of nameservers geographically
and topologically. Having 3 secondaries, only one of them on separate /24,
and none of them on topologically different network does not qualify.

ns1.register.com.     600     IN      A       216.21.234.96
ns2.register.com.     600     IN      A       216.21.226.96
ns3.register.com.     600     IN      A       216.21.234.97
ns4.register.com.     600     IN      A       216.21.226.97

I am not saying that register.com IS doing this, just that you can't say
that they're NOT just from this evidence.

I think Alex could have included a few lines of traceroute to these hosts
showing that they all end behind:
7  tbr1-p014001.wswdc.ip.att.net (12.123.8.98)  9.754 ms  9.685 ms  9.608
ms
 8  tbr1-cl4.sl9mo.ip.att.net (12.122.10.30)  29.708 ms  29.593 ms  33.498
ms
 9  12.122.85.178 (12.122.85.178)  36.300 ms  28.558 ms  28.521 ms


So... it sorta looks like both /24's are behind something in StLouis,
Missouri ( to me atleast ).
