It looks, from the outside, as though the Oppedahl Patent Law Firm LLC uses 
GoDaddy for DNS registration, DNS server hosting, and web server hosting. 
They're also DNSSEC-signing their domain (for which they should be praised ;)

The GoDaddy DNS servers are distributed around the network in various 
colocation sites, and reachable by IP anycast, which means that a number of 
different hosts will answer queries as if they were 'dns1.oppedahl.com', they 
are all reachable over the same IP address, and normal IP routing takes your 
DNS queries to the closest one. When I query for oppedahl.com, I use servers in 
Chicago and they work fine. When you're trying to query for oppedahl.com, 
you're likely using the same Washington, DC area server that Florian was using, 
and it is broken; it doesn't respond to queries that use EDNS0, and therefore 
can't handle DNSSEC. 

Since Oppedahl is the GoDaddy customer, they should open a support case. It 
should be especially important for them to have the USPTO be able to reach 
their website, email, etc. so I'd think they would want to follow up on this 
quite vigorously. . .

Incidentally their phone numbers are 970-468-8600 and 303-252-8800, since you 
can't get them off the website any more ;)

Bill.
