132.0.0.0/10 is floating around:

route-views.oregon-ix.net>show ip bgp 132.0.0.0/10 BGP routing table entry for 132.0.0.0/10, version 12484641 Paths: (43 available, best #41) Advertised to non peer-group peers: 64.166.72.140 4513 13646 5696 568, (aggregated by 568 198.26.128.1) 195.66.224.82 from 195.66.224.82 (209.10.12.222) Origin IGP, metric 7602, localpref 100, valid, external, atomic-aggregate

[snip, route-views has more than a page of entries for it]

However, it doesn't apprar to be registered:

% whois -h whois.arin.net 132.0.0.0 No match for "132.0.0.0".

568 regisitered to disa.mil, and a number of longer prefixes inside the /10 are registered to .mil addresses:

% whois -h whois.arin.net 132.15.0.0 Kadena Air Base (NET-KADENA-NET) Bldg 792, Kadena AB JA APO, AP 96368-5149 US

The question is, do they legitimately own the whole /10? If so, why isn't it marked in the databases?
