Offtopic, but from http://www.mhsc.net/services.htm:

Domain Name Resolution Services (DNS)

All of our DNS is being run from root-service. net, whose web-site is still 
being built. There are no publicly available resolvers yet. We are working 
on that. There are 3 zone servers, but they are only authoritative for MHSC 
owned zones, at the moment.

Question... if you're building a DNS infrastructure which you imply will
be available as a service, why have you put all 3 nameservers behind the
same DSL when you have had major DSL outages in the past?

Also, the NS records in the zone file for root-service.net don't match
the records in the gTLD servers, and you only have 2 NS records in the
zone.  Not that this is a problem, it just looks odd.
