Yeah, yah.  Just like the Mainframe is dead, FreeBSD is dead and every
premature X is dead statement before it..  NAT is going to be here 10
years from now.  Good, bad or otherwise -- it isn't going anywhere
soon.     I predict that NAT will out live IPv6.   You should see what
is being said on the ARIN boards.

Even if IPv6 doesn't meander off to the pasture with Windows ME and
Vista, there are going to be IPv6 to IPv4 NATs.  So you might as well
figure out how to live with them.
