[nsp] IP Ranges 83.0.0.0/8 and 84.0.0.0/8

[Stephen J. Wilcox]

Hi Rob,
 try googling for some common terms that might throw up filters.. there are a 
huge number of sites displaying old bogon data.

I have to say I'm getting a bit skeptical about any kind of bogon filtering 
against blocks that will be assigned one day (eg not rfc1918, reserved etc) 
thats not automated eg a bgp feed from a quality source. This seems to be an 
increasingly large problem as people adopt filtering..

Perhaps the strategy of pushing the idea of filtering to admins needs to be 
tweaked slightly to avoid suggesting any static configurations..
