When I tried to go to <a href="http://amazon.com">amazon.com</a> about 30 mins ago (probably a few minutes before your mail) I got an error.  A (possibly undeserved) curse at Comcast and a few reloads later and it started working again.<br>
<br>However I'm now seeing :<br><br>Non-authoritative answer:<br><a href="http://www.amazon.com">www.amazon.com</a>  nameserver = <a href="http://ns-911.amazon.com">ns-911.amazon.com</a><br><br><a href="http://ns-911.amazon.com">ns-911.amazon.com</a>       internet address = 207.171.178.13<br>
<br>Which may imply something unusual is going on...<br><br>  Scott<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 23, 2009 at 5:08 PM, dl <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kokushibyou@gmail.com">kokushibyou@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

name servers aren't responding? at least from here, and other external<br>
dns servers I query can't seem to resolve amazon either.<br>
<br>
Friend of mine still has some of their DNS in cache, and hardcoding<br>
dns in my hosts file allows me to hit Amazon without any issue. I was<br>
surfing fine until my DNS flushed and couldn't re-resolve.<br>
<br>
Anyone else seeing anything fun?<br>
<br>
Looks like they might be coming back online - my trace is actually<br>
making it to them now, sort of.<br>
