Don't waste time getting too much on Marc's case. We all appreciate the enthusiasm, but most of us do know that the lists are too wide, too little processing, beta stuff (just try some spammy domains on the name based lookup, most of them are NOBL? heh?) etc. On my little finnish userbase there's astounding amount of FPs on newsletters, local ISP servers etc. To actually successfully pull off all the white/yellow/grey/pink/brown stuff, you probably need feeds from every single country in the world and intelligent processing. Now it seems just too brute force. If someone really wants to help, try to work with him to better the stuff, off-list. Every month Marc is advertising his stuff here and then we go again. ;)
