pure bs.  most significant backbones are dual stack.  you are the
chicken, claiming the sky is falling.

I guess we have different definitions for "most significant backbones". Unless you mean they have a dual-stack router running _somewhere_, say, for instance, at a single IX or a lab LAN or something. Which is not particularly useful if we are talking about a "significant backbone".

That said, I certainly don't think content is doing well either. Nor am I trying to say which is at fault. In fact, not even sure I care who is at fault, if fault can even be apportioned.

P.S. Don't suppose people could change the subject when, well, the subject changes?
