RFC 943:
42 THINK-AS [BJN1]
[BJN1] Bruce Nemnich TMC BJN@MIT-MC.ARPA
I have no idea which registry was maintaining AS number registrations
when AS42 changed hands. I suppose it's possible the current
registrant acquired or merged with whatever entity THINK refers to,
but I doubt it, so it seems likely at least at one time transfers were
reflected in updated registrations.
I bet Douglas would have been tickled.
Cheers,
