[boredsenseless]

There seems to be an extremely strong preference to start UK domains names with letter C.

Just thought to let you know.

UK ISP Legend Communications has been suffering an alphabetical technical problem over the past couple of days apparently affecting its Designer Servers customers:

That Legend Communications report in full

Mercifully, Legend is now part of THUS plc which boasts a "state-of-the-art next-generation network". This would explain why the latest network status report declares the issue has "now been located and the problem eradicated".

Indeed, Legend customers should note that merely mislaying domains beginning with "C" is a great improvement on previous performance. Back in September, the ISP's email, IP telephony and domain name servers were smitten by a catastrophic power outage at Legend's Docklands IP House, resulting in much wailing and gnashing of teeth. ®
Bootnote

Thanks to James Green for alerting us to the "C" emergency. According to another rattled reader - Simon Evans - the explanation for the outrage was previous explain thus: "The c section of the zone rebuild on the dns servers has gone a bit foo barred'." This, he notes, is "less than reassuring".

Has OmegaMan really lost it, or is he just pretending?

There is only one truth my child.

First came the American, but he was created in thy image and then poisoned by the serpents. This bitter reflection of self made the Wocky, a fearsome creature of all past and current ills. The wocky was a mirror which was shattered by the demons. And now there is Omega, and Legend walks supreme.

The magic is in the optimisation and Farley's rusks. They are good for teething bunny rabbits as long as the milk is warm and the pressure is firm.

None of my .co.uk's starts with a C. In fact out of the 15 or so domains I own only one actually starts with a C....

[TheMonkey]

Mine starts with a C aswell

Spooky!!

Wooh. Shiver me timbers.
