ns1.nameisp.com only returns A records for www.fenics*, not fenics*, and no
CNAMEs either. This looks like a configuration issue, not a cache issue
(since you're querying the authorative server, not a cacheing server), and
likely won't go away by itself.

Command line for checking:
  for n in {www.,}fenicsproject.{com,org}; do printf $n\\t; dig $n @
ns1.nameisp.com | grep --color ANSWER:..; done

-j.
