Well, it doesn't resolve for my web browers.  Based on the way it fails, I 
think that it fails because I run a local name server with errors out on it.

But if it *did* resolve it would be becuase it was interpretted as the 
numeric address specified as a single 32-bit number rather than as a series 
of four 8-bit numbers; thus, with a little dc we find:

> dc
7814731399 16 o p
1D1CB5687
A o
p
7814731399
16 i
1D p 1C p 56 p 87 p
29
28
86
135

. . . or at least that was my understanding of the theory.
On the other hand, neither 29.28.86.135 nor 135.86.28.29 will actualy work 
for me.

Drat!  And I get so few pointers to pornography in my mailbox; I was really 
hoping to take advantage of this one :-)
