Instead of re-starting this particular perennial thread, can we please 
just abbreviate it to an URL such as

ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/internet-drafts/draft-kook-anycast-is-evil-01.txt

and be done with it? Look. Some folks think that $technology is a good 
solution for $application. Some don't. The great thing about teh 
internat is that differing solutions to common problems are embraced. 

Better solutions reap their rewards, and generally survive. 

I wonder how many folks perpetually arguing this point have ever 
actually implemented anycasted DNS service?

In any case, I cry uncle. Can we just agree to disagree?
