Well, when I can't find it quickly, I usually check RIPE, as the RIPE
whois will tell you which region the ASN is delegated to, and which
registrar to check with. And according to RIPE, 1221 is most definitely in
the lower range controlled by ARIN. No idea why ARIN doesn't have a record
for it...they only carry records for ASN 16779, which is Telstra-USA.
