True - I'll definitely pass on anything that comes up as a result of
this. I expect that my record will cause problems in the future unless
its dealt with explicitly.

I have intentionally provided my registrar with invalid data. They
actually don't have to contact me to take care of the problem because
the current policy space allows them(us) to simply delete the domain
names in heinous situations like this. Suffice to say, I won't be
updating it (small point to prove, but it makes me feel better) unless
I'm specifically instructed to by someone like, say....Elliot. :)
Seriously, the policies in this space are completely goofy and pander
almost exclusively to the perceived needs of the trademark, copyright
and patent lobbies at the expense of registrants. This is a terrible way
to treat the end-customer of the DNS and it really can't continue in
practice or policy.
