Not that I know that much about IPv6, but .... YEAH ! That (sound)'s
so simple!

<p>Nah, look, here's a compromise. Since IPv6 is too far away, and IPv4
<br>has no addresses for us... we'll use IPv5.
<p>Or, what's with this IP stuff anyway? DOOM uses IPX, that's all I
<br>need, and last I heard you don't need an addressing scheme for IPX,
<br>it's all done for you. And there's none of that overhead caused by
<br>"error checking and correcting" .. who needs that sh*t anyway?
<p>Now, where was I? Oh yes, I was bitching about the amount of noise on
<br>the mailing list, oh, that and the speed. it all *should* be running
<br>on exchange 5.5 .. what is this "sendmail" stuff anyway? That's part
of
<br>that pirate "free" software movement and that hacker operating
<br>software "LINUX" .. or was that "RED HAT"? I always get those two
<br>mixed up. :)
