Agreed.  RFC 1918 is a good idea, it's not the law, and with that ISP's
are not required to do anything about 1918 addr's if they choose not to.
We receive a disturbingly large amount of traffic sourced from the 1918

That's odd, I didn't think routing to Null0 (or equivalent) was all that
taxing, I don't want an ACL, I want it gone in the cheapest, fastest way
possible.

that's odd... routing is a DESTINATION based problem, not a SOURCE based
one.
