Whois is retarded as it is, I'm glad I started using my P.O. Box instead of my actual address. Imagine if you ran a site that pissed certain people off, they could easily look up your address and come to your house, ridiculous.

So I try calling their customer service through Google voice and they are closed for the night..
The problem with just changing your info now is that there is "WHOIS history". Most sites providing it fully charge for records but I hear some aren't these days and they have some back records but not all of them like the pay services.

If some nut wants to go after you and is that motivated it's very likely he or she would pay to check to see if you exposed your old address in whois. Once it's out there already you're probably already potentially fucked unless you can think of another way to make that info useless.
