The reason I originally asked about this one is that everything looks
entirely legit other than the ASN.  It appears that the only reason it
is bogus is that the vitamin company isn't very good at remembering to
pay its ARIN bill.

I get the impression that's fairly common, since the practical penalty
for having your ASN fall out of the database is zilch.
