Hmm.. I see there.  Seems more entangled than I thought it'd be.

That's an excellent suggestion, except I'd need to buy (or make) at 
least two biggish load balancers -- far too many clients use this ip 
address as one of their recursive name servers for me to contact and 
reconfigure them all.
That's on the todo list, but for today I'm not able to :-/
