this is telling in this context.

where is the service that is available only on IPv6? i can't seem to
find it.  

maybe that's because i use the Internet for my daily activities (as
does everyone else, including people in asia) rather than some
non-internet, incompatible, no-migration-plan-protocol-based network. 

manually configured tunnels forver!  (until we stop caring or come up
with a real reason to migrate to something else, by which plan maybe
we can have a migration plan and a better protocol suite with
multi-homing).
