>From <URL:http://www.sixxs.net/faq/account/?faq=6bonehandle>:

| * First, read about the person template:
|   whois -h whois.6bone.net -v person.

FreeBSD's whois(1) does not have a -v flag.  I checked a Mandrake
Linux system, and there -v is supported and obviously produces the
expected result.

So, how do I execute the query above with our whois command?
