PLEASE do.  I've been fighting this particular battle for almost two years
now, and *ONCE* got them to delete a bogus phone number.  Not the domain,
understand, just the phone number (martianconsulate.com...check for yourself).

I have gotten a very long list of *why* they won't delete the BS domains,
but unless they don't pay, they don't get deleted (and sometimes, not even
then!).
