Looking for verification that Google and Akamai have the geo-ip for 96.31.0.0/20 set correctly

Thanks for all those who responded on and off-list.  Several persons
confirmed for me using their Akamai account that the address space was
correctly listed in Akamai's database, and between Google's quasi-generic
online form (http://google.com/support/bin/request.py?contact_type=ip) and a
Google employee, I think we'll get this straightened out.

We were assigned a new block from ARIN two weeks ago and are getting several
reports from end users that the Spanish and German versions of Google's
search page are coming up.

IP2Location and Maxmind are mostly correct, but there appears to be no way
for me to verify that Google and Akamai have 96.31.0.0/20 listed correctly.

Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction so I can make an
authoritative check.

Thanks,

Frank
