A Nobel prize winner recently gave a speech about IPv6: - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Years from now, the next generation will ask of us one of two questions. As they survey our actions, and our inactions they will either ask: What were you thinking? Why were you deaf, dumb and blind to the consequences of what was being done to the truth, of what was unfolding? Or they will ask a question, that I prefer them to ask and I truly believe they will ask. I want them to look back on 2007, at the beginning of this century, and ask about us: How did they find the moral courage to rise and face the crisis so many said was impossible to solve? How did they find the ability to raise their level of consciousness about the truth that was confronting our world? How did they find the courage to act? - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I know, I know, that speech was *not* about IPv6. I admit I just really like the phrase "moral courage", and was looking for an excuse to quote it. Still, there are similarities: the non-adoption of IPv6 is nobody's fault, nobody has the power to do anything about it, the world will suck if nothing is done, and nobody in business really cares because it doesn't create profit. - -- Shane -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHYW1tMsfZxBO4kbQRAlv8AKCL2rgdC7V+kvahsNOgeSRIPux2OACdHxXN JOXSleVBRyO3E+Pob5XGDms= =+GAn -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
