i was an early and serious fan of rpsl; see my nanog preso from '96
https://archive.psg.com/960530.nanog.ps, yes, postscript, portrait mode,
probably on acetate, not comic sans, and not magenta.  as i said, early.

it was sabatoged, thanks sean; though to make the point that it was not
at all authenticated.

it has proved useful, though far from a panacea.  but i fear that
scaling issues, lack of authentication, etc. discouraged work and
it is slowly fading.
