$ host irc.london.pm.org irc.london.pm.org A 195.82.114.48
This alias is even *shock* documented, on the london.pm website, in a (hopefully reasonably) sane place:
http://london.pm.org/about/irc.html # second item
I believe there are plans afoot to deprecate the rhizomatic name for the network. Once that happens I hope that page (and a fair few London.pm authored CPAN IRC modules) are changed to point at the new names.
