I don't see any verio hosts in between. To me it looks as if isc is in 
trouble; several
machines in the 204.152.184.* and  204.152.186.* subnets were 
unreachable through
traceroute.
e.g.

funny thing is that http://www.xfree86.org can be reached, but traceroute to
204.152.184.77 fails.

I don't know what's gooing on here.
