Look it up in ARIN, it says it's mine, but with contact info from epix, the old upstream. Again, though, even if I own it, if the announcements don't make it into the backbone it's not very useful, and I gather that some backbones now filter at /19 except for the swamp. > Sure, a host modify (http://rs.internic.net/cgi-bin/itts/host) will set you > up.
