Thanks Jake

I noticed a couple things: 

- dig times out at 5 seconds by default, so if anybody set CEILING at more than 
5 it will fail anyways, but you could set the +time=$CEILING option.

- If a DNSBL is offline, won't dig return instantly with a NXDOMAIN? I guess 
that doesn't matter since if a DNSBL is offline it won't effect anything. 
You're only looking for slow responses.

Quinn

PS: Congrats on the new site!
