Got a better idea?  Some of us have been running IPv6 since 1998 and this is
still the closest thing to getting people motivated to switch we've seen this
century.

And I doubt it will be a *total* failure - even if a lot of things unexpectedly
break, the post-mortems will of value.  In fact, the cynic in me says the
post-mortems are what's really driving this whole event. ;)
