<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; color: #173860;">You are wrong. All my addresses are assigned and working. You may ask -
why do I open LIRs again and again?
Because I need more addresses to offer to my customers. Purchasing
addresses from open market is risky. Thats why I open new LIRs.
RIPE earns quick money in this case, not me.
