george and geoff's movie gives an interesting perspective on
number of asns allocated and number of asns announced.

like address space, i suspect we have a general issue of if
and how we recover unused resources.  what may make this
more difficult than one might think at first blush is what
george and geoff's movie points out, unused resources tend
to be those that were allocated long ago.  and we all know
how easy it is to contact those folk.
