I wonder why many people are acting so hard about that small
mention of it, apparently that did take enough attention while
the subject at hand didn't get taken a look at at all.
For your pleasure below is the complete detailed message I sent to them.
If you still think that I am a 'kook' or other odd insults
then please keep them to yourself. I thought NANOG was for
Network Operators and not for flame wars and tidbits.

Thank you very much for yet another insult, at least you are
polite enough to do it on a public mailinglist instead of
trying to mailbomb me. I still wonder why that is happening
as I was and still am trying to be friendly and hoping to
figure out why it is happening. FYI there are only 2 prefixes
that have this currently in the entire routing table but alas.

Greets,
 Jeroen

Subject: 2001:590::/32 announced by both AS4436 (nLayer) and AS4474 (Global Village, no contact in whois)

Hi,

We are currently seeing 2001:590::/32 announced by both AS4436 (nLayer)
and AS4474 (Global Village Communication)

As 2001:590::/32 is assigned to nLayer I assume that AS4474 is in error.
AS4474 information is apparently invalid according to ARIN whois, thus
emailing their 'upstream' AS4716/Powerdcom (admin at pwd.ad.jp).

>From grh.sixxs.net, see http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/
or directly: http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/lg/?find=2001:590::/32,
see formatted output below.

It might be interresting for you to setup a peering with GRH
so these bugs are better traceable and we can easily see
that they are or are not originating from your systems.

Greets,
 Jeroen

Notice that AS6939 peering with GRH gives AS4436 as the source but is in the path
also for the AS4474 origin, this could be because they have both US and EU routers.

Here is also a traceroute to the destination from AS8954 (Intouch) to AS4474:
