It was Paul, I wanted to know where I got my IETF sunglasses,trench coat and
neuralizer from and wheather I could nominate parking in advance. (Form an
ordely queue behind paul and myself, and no pushing please)

If this "just" happens to help a certain Mr. C to retire in peace and quiet
and run the internet (Via IPv6) from his Montana log cabin, who am I to
disagree. I still want first dibs on the parking, especially in San
Francisco ;->

their kneecaps, set fire to their house, release information to their
families they wouldn't want to be released, but also as a grand finale,
we can take control of the machine and do what we wanted anyway.
Eventually, we as the IETF would have complete control of every machine
connected to the Internet, thereby giving us control of the entire
planet, which in turn would allow us to park wherever we wanted and
*not*get*a*ticket*!!!!!! :-)
