Good...

...skipping typos and editorial nits reported separately ::2
is interesting, as I didn't know it.  My intuitive idea for
an IPv6 test address would have been ::FFFF:127.0.0.2 based
on the IPv4 test address.  Never listing ::1 is clear, same
idea as for 127.0.0.1.  WTH is ::FFFF:127.0.0.2 in a DNSBL ?

0.0.0.2.0.0.F.7.F.F.F.F.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0 
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2

Well, nobody said that IPv6 DNSBLs are pretty.
