Given the numbers presented on http://www.nanog.org/mtg-0210/wessels.html,
I suspect that the actual location won't matter.  As both Wessels and
Vixie have demonstrated, if we wanted to cut the load 30% real fast,
we'd implement 1918 filtering.  We wanted to cut the load 98%, we'd fix
all the OTHER stupidity.
