Andrew, you recall that during the Q&A session of your 
peering talk during SAFNOG-1, I did mention to you that 
inconsistent routing is a major problem we, as a service 
provider in Africa, face to a large extent.

While talking to customers is the most effective method of 
getting this fixed, as you can attest, the results are not 
always what you'd sanely expect.

Mark.
