Since I'm obviously not illiterate, presumably this insult counts as
yet another of your ad hominem attacks.

So why do you consistently fail to say "Nominum"? For one thing it
needs fewer keystrokes than "the BIND company". Your repeated failure
to identify that company by name is childish. If your objective is to
identify my employer there is no logical reason why you couldn't
mention its actual name.

This is a lie as well as a feeble excuse. You might have more time to
find out about the ISC/Nominum relationship -- as if you didn't know
that already -- if you didn't resort to cheap jibes, insults and ad
hominem attacks.
