Oh, goody, another round of wasted time and energy arguing about IPv6 and NAT
boxes on the IETF list (triggered, as usual, by more pro-IPv6 propoganda from
desperate IPv6 proponents).

Definitely the most incisive summation of IPv6 I've seen recently was this
one:

By the way, just out of interest, don't the tops of your knees get kind of
bruised every time to you see the word "NAT", or have you learned to scoot
back from your desk in time?
