[outages] cannot resolve ca.gov from Linode default resolvers in Fremont

Hello,

There seems to be an outage of ca.gov domain names from within Linode 
resolvers in Fremont.  I'm not sure what the issue is, because I cannot 
see there being anything wrong with ca.gov nameservers; nonetheless, the 
names cannot be resolved through Linode's default resolver.

It has been more than an hour already as ca.gov cannot be accessed with 
Linode's default resolvers.

Cheers,
Constantine.
