once upon a time, provider A and provider P were having a peering war, and =
provider V provided valley transit for P's prefixes to A.  it was not meant=
 to be seen publicly, but the traceroutes were posted to nanog, or maybe it=
 was com-priv at the time.

this is far from the only time this has happened.
