This is great, I feel like one of the in crowd - getting slammed by

Seriously, I wasn't trying to put it on an emotional level - just
trying to point out some basic issues that haven't been mentioned.
Sometimes you have to do what's best for the Internet as a whole
while not necessarily what's best for you personally. Some are
willing to do this and some aren't.
Also, I wasn't referring to the ISPs that want portable address space.
As I stated in the message I understand why ISPs don't want to be
dependant upon their upstream providers.
