Thanks for all the great input, minus the somewhat uncivil comments of

What are people's feelings on loose source routing? The general
sentiment around here is that it is a very evil thing. The reason I ask
is that there is a certain network out there (who will remain nameless)
who refuses to peer unless loose source routing is enabled. I can
somewhat understand their reasoning (they can reroute traffic on OUR
network as necessary)

false.  the reason is that our noc can debug your routing problem without
going through the problems of getting intelligent cooperation from your
noc.
