Increased traffic from less-geeky people = more sane numbers overall. The
problem with the graphs on that site is that the audience is self
selecting; so only when some major site says "go here!" do we get a more
random(ish) audience, versus people setting up tunnelbrokers and the like.

You're assuming there's significant rollout of IPv6. Everything I've seen
so far says that *starts* nowish, and more laterish this year, in any
impacting way. Really, we're just just before the start of getting end
user adoption to start rising.
