more over, who cares? a /8 is less than 2 months rundown globally...
and, once upon a time I constructed on this list a usecase for apple's
/8 ... it's really not THAT hard to use a /8, it's well within the
capabilities of a gov't to do so... especially given they PROBABLY
have:
  o unclassified networks
  o secret networks
  o top secret networks
  o other networks

I'm sure there's plenty of ways they could use the space in question.
