Folks,
 
    The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has requested
that folks not use IP network numbers in the reserved class A block 
(64.0.0.0 thru 126.0.0.0).  If you are making use of these numbers 
in your network, please contact us at "nearnet-eng@nic.near.net" 
for more details.

Thanks!
/John

Hello:

We have receivied several complaints about reserved network 
numbers being used in the Internet or in private internets.

Most of these are in the reserved block of class A numbers 
64.0.0.0 thru 126.0.0.0.

...

We appreciate your cooperation in tracking down and killing off
these inappropriate uses of the reserved addresses.

Thanks.

The IANA.
