Warren's wildcard DNS setup for the .com TLD

I have received a bunch of emails lately from different people who are
upset with Warren's setup of his DNS server as authorative for the
.com top-level domain with a wildcard address record directing lots of
traffic to his web pages.

I regret even mentioning such a setup to someone who quite obviously
has absolutely no respect for others. To my defense I might say that I
also very clearly stated that he had to make absolutely certain that
his information didn't propagate - and I said so for this very reason.
But that is a poor apology.

The simple fix is to add his server into the bogus list. Norman J.
Pieniazek at the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention
(cdc.gov) gave me the IP address 207.246.144.48, and Warren's domain
(nebulant.com) has the name servers 207.246.129.70 and 207.246.129.71
according to the gTLD servers. So to help spare everyone from his
idiocy, list these three servers as bogus. In BIND 8.x and 9.x, add
these lines wherever you feel it is appropriate in your named.conf,
then flush the cache:

	server 207.246.129.70 { bogus yes; };
	server 207.246.129.71 { bogus yes; };
	server 207.246.144.48 { bogus yes; };

Again my apologizes for all this.
