	Nice thought, except it doesn't work in practice.  
	We have 169.197.0/18.  When we advertise it, Sean's
	filters prevent ICM/ICP from getting it.  When we 
	mis-advertise it as /16 the filter lets us through.

	My two messages to INSC, 2 to engineer@sl, and 4 to Sean
	didn't generate any solutions, so what makes you think
	it will work for 164.103.3.0/24?
