It's a good idea, but of course that requires someone in the allocated
block to have a list of addresses to ping, all over the net.
Such lists aren't _that_ hard to come by. It's been done.

If anyone from cymru wants to talk to me about what I did with 69/8 (69box), or get some data, they know how to reach me.
