Alex,

It happens to all of us...  I base this on experience at smaller ISP's
and with SBC Internet services. ( Southwestern Bell, Pacific Bell, Nevada
Bell, SNET ).

Again, we are applying for more space from ARIN.

Some of the questions we got from them range from "please provide a
network map and/or customers justification as to why they needed a /24" to
"please provide where your POPs are, how many dialups there are in that
POP, and how many ports you have in that dialup."

I'd love to know if larger places (UU? PSI? MCI? Sprint? etc) have to
answer questions like this when they apply for space.

I don't want to hear an answer from ARIN, I would like feedback from
actual customers of ARIN.

Thanks.
