[LDraw-tech] Dan is moving to the land of earthquakes and fire....

Dan,

Before I get to the Custom DNS panel, PairNIC is giving me this message:

*WARNING
ldraw.org's name servers will be set to:
   NS1.PAIRNIC.COM
   NS2.PAIRNIC.COM
All current DNS settings for Web & E-mail will be erased!
(This means your current settings will stop working.)
These changes can NOT be automatically recovered.*
Please confirm you want me to continue and allow this change -- I am not
sure if this will break anything on the site's DNS, especially the A record
so the site remains accessible to users.

-Tim
