(I keep thinking -- what has this got to do with North American Network Ops?)

      instead we treat it as (leaving out the '<' '>' stuff out of laziness):

              <w><h><a><t><e><v><e><r><.><c><o><m>

      and look up like this:

              ask a ROOT nameserver for M NSes
              ask a M nameserver for O NSes
              ...
              ask a <w> nameserver for appropriate info

That's an implementation detail; the protocol won't (I mean, wouldn't :-))
have to change at all to support this.
