(I have /24 globally routable IP addresses.)

I'm curious about the story behind how you acquired what's become such a rare item? Also - how does one use them behind a residential ISP? Do you have your own AS number? This all sounds quite interesting if you don't mind sharing some of the details for the nerdy amongst us. Thanks, rb
