I'm pretty sure that there was a total Bozo the Clown in charge of
"the Internet" at that time - I remember foolishness like one site that
announced a route for 127/8 which was actually believed by a lot of sites.

I'm sure if anybody clueful had been in charge, things like that would
not have happened.

Odd.  I just got a survey from them the other week.  They *do* run other
surveys than their big constitutionally-mandated one every decade, you know.
