<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>I think the biggest thing
that needs said about this entire thread is, yes perhaps there are some
frivolous allocations out there (google and facebooks, though, I dont believe
fall in this category). However, we'd still be in the same boat we're in
now, where IPv6 is necessary. It may have happened at a slightly later
date if ARIN and the likes had been a little more stingy with their allocations,
but we'd still be at the same point in the end.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
