You answered my question. I am not sure I want to use one entry from
OpenDNS and one from Rogers in the long term, but in the short term I
am manually trying OpenDNS on my workstation. I lose my intranet DNS
services if I use OpenDNS for both, so I set one to my intranet DNS
server and one to OpenDNS. 

Why is it silly to use one Rogers DNS entry and one OpenDNS one?
