lesson learned don't use an example...
Note I also said:
 " (or othersimilar options)."

(ha! here's more examples!)
  o poison the route with remote asn' in the aspath! (except for

  o ask for packet filter from upstream isp
  o stop announcing your route
  o filter on your side of the fence.

in any case the idea still seems silly.
