ob spam...  Spam is viral marketing for CHoRD?
DNS can deal w/ billions of entries... order magnitude IPv4 space,
with relative ease (note well the use of the term "relative")

not at all convinced that unmodified DNS can deal w/ spaces on the
order of magnitude of IPv6 space...

*and yes, there is -zero- correlation btwn numbers and names, except
	if you want the pants whole.  The analogy?  Forward DNS is 
	like the front half of your pants.... and the reverse map is
	the back half.  Some folks are comfortable wearing only chaps,
	but I really want a complete pair thanks.
