In addition to that, there are about 92 other domainnames occupying
69.16.211.62 rDNS creston.dailydns.com

If any of them were spamvertised, the notify would go to liquidweb.  My
source of information about that isn't necessarily accurate or uptodate,
for example that source doesn't show whathostingshould.be at this time

As I check on the registration for whathostingshould.be - I see that it
has recently changed.  It was reg'd Jan 9, but it was updated Feb 12 and
your name, address, & gmail appear, along with your G3 organization.  So
I'm thinking that maybe the IP for the site changed or something which
causes my lookup for all of the sites at 69.16.211.62 to not be
completely accurate.
