Re: E-mail from ARIN ref. Legacy Registration Services

[Teresa Beamer <beamer () DENISON EDU>]

We received one as well.  After looking at the arin site, it looks to  
me like they want us to pay money for the support of the ip ranges  
that were assigned to us back before this registrar and before there  
was a crunch on ip4 space.
