This isn't even an AUP issue. It's all about RFC 1855 and a
bit of confusion regarding the purpose of the list.
Hint: anybody who can't find an RFC by number should probably
start with a less technical list than NANOG. But, I'll be
nice and give you a URL:
http://www.cybernothing.org/cno/docs/rfc1855.html
I've been handing out that URL a lot this year, and we're not
even a full week into it yet. It's saddening.
