This corruption is happening to whois data on records transfered in, for the technical contact. For the first example I noticed, I'm pretty sure no human went near the data, and if they did, they did it from Rhode Island, and so could have a reasonable stab at entering a state, even if it isn't a very big one. It is just a bug. Some field is not being cleared, or some daft default exists for a database field if it isn't present. _______________________________________________ domains-gen mailing list [email protected] http://discuss.tucows.com/mailman/listinfo/domains-gen
