Anyone else noticing "." requests coming in to your DNS servers?

I'm seeing them coming from the following addresses in my ns server logs.

69.50.142.110
69.50.142.11
76.9.16.171
66.230.128.15
66.230.160.1

We're also seeing a great number of these, but the idiots spoofing the
queries are hitting several non-recursive nameservers we host - and only
generating 59-byte "REFUSED" replies.

Looks like they probably just grabbed a bunch of DNS hosts out of WHOIS
and hoped that they were recursive resolvers.
