Ray Bradbury dies on June 6th, 2012, at 91 years old. :C
IPv6 has essentially longer IP addresses, allowing for far more addresses. IPv4 (basically the entirety of the internet as we know it) is only designed to read the current IP addresses. IPv6 is an entirely new internet, being built piece by piece. The two are connected, because while IPv6 is not actually backwards compatible, most of the hardware has been made too include both versions, making it backwards compatible in a round about way. Though future versions will likely abandon it altogether.Originally Posted by Hermes
I thought that IPv4 sites where the same as IPv6 but with added 0's which allowed the newer IPv4 routers to automatically add the necessary bits to access IPv6 sites. Although that's all probably wrong as I haven't payed too much attention to the IPv's.
Also as it stands it's hard enough to use the internet on dialup (stupid data limits), I can't imagine how it would be on IPv6.
I just talked to my brother, who works for a Virtual ISP company managing dialup here in the US, and said there hasn't really been much talk about it since it was big new a year ago. He said it won't really effect anyone, because they have IPv6 incorporated into their system, and will likely begin installing it for new clients once it becomes mainstream, but current clients will remain on IPv4 unless they specifically ask to be upgraded.
All sites migrating to IPv6 are basically just making clones of themselves on the "new internet", so the experience will be the same. As time goes on, a few years down the road, once >80% of the internet has migrated we might start to see companies abandoning IPv4 all together, leaving the old tech with a smaller version of the internet. Only then will there actually be a difference on for the end user.
I expect most service providers will follow the same model, introducing newer customers to IPv6, and ignoring current customers until they ask for or need an upgrade.
News media might pick up on it and make a bigger fuss out of it, but otherwise its just going to happen quietly in the background.
Hooray for selective breeding. What about traits that are carried but not expressed? One does not know that outcome until the person lives. :P
Kudos on the research. :)
Oh look! The love-child of Mr. MBTI and Ms. Enneagram. Seems to favor the missus.
Dr. Lundell may have a history:

However, a 2006 cardiology journal article suggests that "Western" diet may exacerbate arterial inflammations (somewhat agrees with Dr. Lundell):
