        Alternativly, 3404 & 10487 could insist that Verio consolidate
        all the prefixes they announce into no more than eight prefixes.

        Verio seems to be pushing back on ARIN, which has clearly stated
        that any delegations it makes have no assurance of routablity.
        Thats not fair to ARIN.
