Good advise Jack.

I recommend everyone print this list of Root Name Servers.

"A root name server is a name server for the root zone of the Domain Name System (DNS) of the Internet. It directly answers requests for records in the root zone and answers other requests by returning a list of the authoritative name servers for the appropriate top-level domain (TLD). The root name servers are a critical part of the Internet infrastructure because they are the first step in translating (resolving) human readable host names into IP addresses that are used in communication between Internet hosts."

You would have to take out ALL of these servers to take down the World Wide Web.

What is the syntax to address a root server?
