We were an early user of the 69/8 address space.  I started the original
thread on this subject back in Sept/Oct 2002.  While I am very disturbed
(but not surprised) to find out that there are still serious issues with
networks acknowledging this allocation, this is one of the best
suggestions I have seen for doing something to force the issue.
