Submission + - Asia runs out of internet addresses next month (potaroo.net)

mindbuilder writes: At the rate the Asia pacific region has been consuming IPv4 internet address this year, it is expected that they will run out before the end of April, and perhaps closer to the beginning of April. Even if your region will still have addresses available, the sharing of addresses using NAT that will be necessary in the APNIC region will cause communications problems for users in every other region trying to contact APNIC users. Therefore it would be best if users in every region start moving to IPv6 as soon as possible.

People will learn to keep themselves updated better.

What is this strange thing that makes people want to deny the likelihood of curing aging within the next few decades? I saw a survey of doctors that reported that the doctors thought that the average life expectancy a hundred years from now would be only about a hundred years. That means those doctors thought aging wouldn't be cured for more than 200 years! What on earth possesses people to think that progress will be so slow?
