Or better still, receive default along with the rest of your desired 
table from the transit provider and drop the pref on that as it passes 
the border.  Static defaults can bite you on the arse if something 
happens to the box at the other end of the link.  Nothing worse than 
following a default you generate just to see the traffic get black 
holed.
