Michael, I think you misread the output from whois.  When you do a
'whois 96' you're kicking up 2 different records.  From the below excerpts
I see absolutely no relation between the IP block 96.0.0.0 - 126.0.0.0,
and the current user of AS# 96.

matt:portia: whois 96.0
IANA (RESERVED-8)

   Netname: Reserved             
   Netblock: 96.0.0.0 - 126.0.0.0

As far as those 'reserved' former A addresses.  Aren't those the ones
that are going to be cut up and handed out in the not so distant
future?
