personally speaking, and no disrespect to any abovenet network engineers, or anyone
else, but I would *MUCH* rather a solution which doesn't involve them logging
onto several routers to block 1 route (I don't know how many places abovenet peer
with uunet, but I'll bet that its more than 1 place)

a) Add a blackhole route  (1 config change)
b) Tag/block route on ingress (X config changes)
c) block route on egress (Y config changes)
