Basically it's the old address space that /24's used to be allocated 
directly from ARIN and can't be aggregated today.  Just to pick some 
random examples.

192.12.3.0/24 
192.12.4.0/24
192.12.5.0/24 
...
..

Those blocks are all allocated to different organizations and have to be 
announced as individual /24's to be reachable because no larger aggregate 
can be announced.
