Thus spake "E.B. Dreger" <eddy+public+spam () noc everquick net>
I _still_ like the idea of putting DNS roots in new IP blocks
during sunrise and having the final octet be .0 and/or .255.  It
would be nice to catch dated bogon filters, lame attempts at
smurf stopping, _and_ stale root.cache in one blow.

 From an academic standpoint, that would be a very interesting experiment.
However, most of us are paid to keep our networks or services running, not
to intentionally break them.
