I did.  I do.  I am.  I have!

Please excuse me for having foolishly tried to obtain actual authoritative
information from the actual RIPE WHOIS server, rather than from a Wayback
Machine (archive.org) copy of something that appeared on the bgpview.io
web site.

Regardless of what that other non-authoritative source of information
may say, may I ask you to please tell me what *you* see when *you* perform
the following two commands?

whois -h whois.ripe.net -- "--list-versions 62.222.0.0/15"
whois -h whois.ripe.net -- "--show-version 1 62.222.0.0/15"

Maybe I need new glasses, but I'm not seeing the year 2002 mentioned in
the outputs of these two commands.

Maybe I'm just doing it wrong.  Do I need to try using negative numbers
as arguments to the --show-version option?

Does that option accept imaginary numbers as arguments?
