Worse yet, I applied for several class-C's for companies years ago (before the CIDR stuff really got off the ground) that I _know_ are obsolete, but the Internic won't let me recycle them. I should have left my name on them in some way I guess. The problem is, the address listed is obsolete, the phones disconnected and in one case the contact is dead! So, how is one supposed to try and recycle in this sort of situation? On Thu, 1 Feb 1996, Jon Zeeff wrote: > > > to them.
