Be careful about making statements about impossibility without an

Already sent. Of course, proofs, like software, may have bugs :-) The
IETF is not a bad place to discuss them.
This is kind of like saying "heavier-than-air machines cannot fly,"
in 2006.
We still do not have perpetual motion or solved the squaring of the
circle.
Your reasoning is very strange: because some people were wrong in the
past, it means we cannot be sure of anything and we should waste our
time on things which are impossible?
