[ale] sponsoring registrar

[Todor Fassl]

I don't have access to the credit card and somebody else is working on 
getting the billing straightened out. But I am correct in thinking that 
we have to talk to the place listed as the sponsoring registrar to 
regain control over the domain, right?  I filled out a tech support 
ticket at the sponsoring registrar, enom.com, and they emailed me back 
saying they'd never heard of our domain. I get the feeling though, that 
they are blowing us off because they keep making it sound harder and 
harder for us to get control of the domain.
