	Thanks, Linc, I hear good things about BlueHost. My company actually  
runs the web hosting service hosting this list, however. :-)  I went  
through and checked out our DNS server yesterday and all is well. The  
problem in my situation is actually with my ISP (my server is in a  
datacenter in Texas). I use Charter's cable internet at home and for  
some reason it won't let me get to my server's DNS. Using different  
DNS servers on the client end fixes the problem -- like I said on my  
blog, I'm the only one who can't get to my server.

	Interestingly, even other Charter users can get to it. I thought  
perhaps it was my computer, but I've tried multiple computers to no  
avail on my home network (save for switching DNS).

	-Tim
