I thought iced-over fiber was a little bit like muffler-bearings.  Great
excuse if they buy it.

Mmm...  Good question.  Would it actually come back OUT in a

I'll vote with packet loss, 'cause tunneling seems pretty gross.   ;)

So if a v6 carrier swallows a v4 datagram does that count as packet
loss or tunneling?
