I actually tested the cache's round-robin on several public dns servers 
including of my ISP, and all resulted in *not* performing round-robin on cached 
queries of pool.ntp.org and 0.pool.ntp.org.
I have made same test with a local windows 2000 dns server and same result.
Then I have made same test again but on a BIND server on linux and indeed it 
*does* make round-robin on cached queries of 0.pool.ntp.org but for some reason 
I cant understand it doesnt respond to queries of pool.ntp.org, instead it 
responds with the list of authoritative name servers.
I'm starting to get confused too!
