I still have 2 of my borders using an inbound ACL to filter BOGONs vs 
null routes.  For the ACLs I've broken down the BOGONs to nothing larger 
than a /8.  I see a number of hits on those entries, especially on 94/8. 
  and 0/8.  While some of the other hits are accidental I'm sure, I 
would seriously doubt if those 2 /8s are.
