Thought-- with the 7 new routers that Cisco just put out, all of which
Could handle a FULL BGP route table, and the "low" cost of these, many
Could be prepping budgets to do this and we just don't know..

I have been advising ALL my customers that have multi-homing
requirements to 
Get their own space.  And the planning timeline for them is not short..
I know many of you have renumbered, so you know what those folks are up
against,
Especially with the financial markets the way they are now.........

I think not only would this help but also the denied count.
And a count of denied resubmittals.
If I were to get denied, I would "realign the stars" and resubmit...
I know that happened, I have heard of that before......

I like statistics, but we are just starting the count........
