I agree that 1/8 was probably about the *last* that should have been
allocated. It's particularly frustrating that they made two assignments
at the same time, but not to adjacent routing blocks....
Also, 27/8 is clearly in the middle of a group of North American military
assignments. So at the very least, these aren't very CIDR'ish.
Why not 36 & 37?
