But that piece of paper is not from a "government".  ARIN is not a
governmental agency or department, they are not paid through tax
dollars, they do not carry the "force of law".  I still maintain that
legacy holders hold no license from any government to the use of those
numbers.  I also still maintain that we should let them continue to use
them, but because it is right, not because it would be illegal to do
otherwise.
