Mostly because there are just that many more domains! There is some loss of
coolness with the TLDs. If you take a look at the file, you will see the
TLDs are stored for each domain. Victim of the autoscript there I'm afraid.
But the regex beginins is boiled down pretty nicely. This is from a nice
script someone posted to this list a while ago for me. And the great work of
my friend W. Stearn.
