[TriLUG] Earthlink's namesevers suX0Rz. Need alternates

Folks,
I'm finally fed up with Earthlink's cute DNS redirection scheme, in
which their client nameservers redirect queries of nonexistent hosts to
a commercial search page, like so:
http://earthlink-help.com/?AddInType=Bdns&Version=1.2.0el&FailureMode=1&ClientLocation=us&FailedURI=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.triloogie.org%2F
I'm pretty sure this breaks an RFC somewhere, but more than that it's
plain annoying. Has anyone got two nameservers I can use instead of
Earthlink's?
For reference, here are the broken Earthlink ones:
nameserver 207.69.188.185
nameserver 207.69.188.186
nameserver 207.69.188.187
Thanks, y'all!
Mark
