would anyone happen to have the numeric ip address for eff.org or

I'd sure appreciate it....
Both eff.org and ftp.eff.org resolve to 192.88.144.3, according to nslookup.
But when you actually ftp to ftp.eff.org, the hostname reported is kragar.eff.org, and a traceroute there shows the endpoint's IP address as 192.88.144.4.
