                     Oh, so that's where they stuck .org

For the past few months it's been rather difficult for me to check
registration information for .org TLD (Top Level Domains); I do a whois and
get back:

> The Registry database contains ONLY .COM, .NET, .EDU domains and
> Registrars.

Then it's fishing around various websites to get the registrar of the
particular .org domain I'm interested in. Then via an entry at utopia with
cheese [1], I finally learned that Public Internet Registry [2] contains the
database in question, and that I can just query whois.pir.org.
