<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Thank you very much for clearing up the record. I do stand by my original point that it is not reasonable to deny resources solely because of organization
size. The BGP policy discriminates against smaller organizations and that is why I am making such a fuss over it. As I mentioned I will be formally submitting my proposed change to ARIN policies that I submitted in my first post on this subject. This is

reasonably demonstrate a need for an IP block.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
