He is. My system is on his list too, which is pretty amazing when you consider that my mail server supports 3, count them, 3 users - myself, my wife, and my 10 year old son - and he's somehow determined that my site hosts spammers.
Last I looked, he listed all of Sprint. All of it. Not just Sprint's offices, not just sites hosted by Sprint, but the entire IP space. He states that he normally adds entire netblocks.
In fact, he used to block access to his website from anyone who was listed, which meant I needed to use an anonymizing proxy just to read about why he'd blocked it.
Oddly, our mail server shows up with a 127.3.0.0 result. According to his description, listings should return 127.1.xxx.xxx, with the last two octets indicating the reason. Going by his table, the return code indicates that he listed us for no reason.
I think it's telling that of the three multiple-RBL-lookup sites I have bookmarked, one (http://www.robtex.com/rbls.html) has deprecated the list and no longer checks it, and one (http://moensted.dk/spam/) labels it with the phrase, "trying to be removed creates urges to kill".
