Michael, Sprint and Sean are at the forefront of many issues involved with scaling issues on the Internet. I have found his comments are valuable, and not childish. Michael keep your comments to yourself. Bob Gibson Capital Area Internet Service On Mon, 11 Sep 1995, Michael F. Nittmann wrote:
Can we stop this bashing right here, Sean? I don't believe that this list is the adequate forum four such childish behaviour. I have a collection of your past emails and I am rather fed up withthis.
Can Sean be removed from the list? These are not contributions in any sense of constructivity at all.
Sprint can very well chose a different person to make their corporate views known on an nanog scale.Mike

There were several other providers who got notes from me about prefixes that were flapping every several seconds or thereabouts. The tally so far:
Polite "we have a ticket open and will get someone to fix things" from three providers (thanks ANS, BBN, EBONE).
A trio of no-answer-yets, one of which has since been fixed, one of which will be fixed since I have the advantage of sharing a room with the routing guru of the NSP in question and the bigger advantage of not needing nearly as much sleep. :-)
The third no-answer-yet is from a smaller provider in Europe, and I expect they'll get back to me in their morning.
Finally, there was the previous reply.

P.S.: Oh, I also have to thank Pushpendra Mohta of CERFNET who replied to an earlier note personally with an explanation of what was going on.
