    American Red Cross:

    I know you have other things on your plate right now, but you seem to have a DNS problem.

    redcross.org.           86400   IN      NS      arcdns3.redcross.org.
redcross.org.           86400   IN      NS      arcdns2.redcross.org.

    The name server arcdns3.redcross.org (162.6.90.141) either doesn’t exist, or is broken. Unfortunately, the Top-Level DNS servers still have it on file.

    The site is working great [here]. Except for the DNS issues.
    Keep up the good work.
