We caught up with Paul at Defcon, and did the first of a new series of interviews, in this case, Internet Gods, as a compliment to our multi-award winning Gaming Gods interview series ( here and here). We hope this imparts as much wisdom as is possible for a person to absorb over the course of two to three hours. Enjoy.

Inquirer: DNS is sometimes described as having a tree like structure. What kind of tree is it?
Vixie: DNS is kind of like a bush.
Inquirer: Thank you. µ
