Novartis and Qwest AS209

Thanks Chris.  That is what I assumed as well. Some automatic route object
registration went awry.  Was hoping someone from Qwest/CenturyLink would
jump in and fix it as many of the GEOIP databases automated tools use
descr field.

No further comment required.  It was just peeving me a bit so figured I
would send something out on it.
