I've had good success reaching Yahoo based on the contact information in
the Arin whois; called the number on there, and got through to a real
person fairly quickly. This was a month ago. I'm told that you can also
email ynoc-request at yahoo dot com (for normal NOC type queries only, I
assume).

I removed our listing there because we were getting so much spam
to the email address that was posted there (which can't really be
spam-filtered, for obvious reasons) - that's the only place the
address was posted except in the ARIN whois. After getting rid of the
old POC, no problems. So a useful service, but I really wish they'd do
more to at least try and trick address harvesting bots.
