I agree that it's ugly, but we (the net as a whole) are RUNNING OUT
of addresses. Too many people are losing sight of that fact lately.
We here at Digital Express Group, Inc. (an Internet access provider)
are *NOT* using dynamic addressing because most brain-damaged PC and
MAC software can't deal with it. But, we would if we could. We would
hate it, but we would do it.
