A Thought

If you were DARPA and you were going to dual run the new and old IP addresses at the same time, what would you do to make sure it didn't mess everything up, basically destroy all the information on the internet? I know what I would do, I would take a snapshot of everything, absolutely everything. I wouldn't want everyone to lose their passwords or pictures or anything else so you would have to duplicate every e-mail account, everything. Everything that you have online even if you are not.

That is what you do to a system before you change it, you back that sucker up and with the "cloud" it won't even be an effort. Tomorrow the new IPs will be tested and found to be working fine. If there are any problems with communications it will be blamed on the solar flare that just occurred.
