Wow. A news story about the depletion of IP addresses? Shocking, since th=
is is the first I've personally heard about this. I can't believe that thi=
s has never once even been brought up on NANOG, cisco-nsp, juniper-nsp, ARI=
N PPML, ARIN Discuss, or any other telecommunications list to which most of=
us subscribe.
In other news, I understand that the Americans have won their independence =
from England? Did anyone else know this?

* Sorry for the snarkiness, it's just that posts like this ignite flame war=
s between those unwilling to spend the trivial cost for IPv6 addresses and =
those who are pushing for IPv6. Instead, it's obviously more cost-effectiv=
e to spend *hours* reading and writing multiple arguments against IPv6 than=
it is to just implement it.
