Chris - 

  Very timely...  I should advise the community that a revised ARIN
  Bulk WHOIS policy will be sent for community consultation shortly, 
  and folks should take a chance to comment on the valid uses of 
  access to this data.  More information on how ARIN processes 
  incoming suggestions and consultations is available here:
