TCP doesn't work with Anycast, as was stated in RFC1546.  And Root
server operators are supposed to offer TCP to everyone, not just those
that use the stateless UDP service that works with Anycast.  Do you
remember that David Kessens, then the Operations Area Director took out
a PR action against me to silence discussion about Anycast Root server
operations?
