Your domain registrar is having your dns delegated to 3 nameservers: thought.org. 86400 IN NS ns1.thought.org. thought.org. 86400 IN NS ns1.silvertree.org. thought.org. 86400 IN NS ns1.twisted4life.com. ;; Received 142 bytes from 2001:500:48::1#53(b2.org.afilias-nst.org) in=20 32 ms The last of the 3, ns1.twisted4life.com, is of the opinion that your=20 domain doesn't exist, given that it has no authoritative data and=20 refuses to do recursive lookups for the Internet at large. I would=20 suspect that this would result in the coming and going visibility that=20 others have reported. Basically, you don't exist a third of the time. You need to make sure that all the nameservers you list with your=20 registrar are actually admitting to your existence and are getting=20 up-to-date data. I recall having this conversation with you before. --=20 --Jon Radel jon@radel.com --------------ms090202070401090708060200--
