That is all I know.

That is all you think; sadly for you, you have no credibility, or evidence for your alternative (do you even posit one?) I find them persuasive, and you not at all. Water is the most common compound in the universe. It's painfully fucking obvious that comets are dirty snowballs. Only a ignorant crank or slashdot armchair blowhard would disagree without presenting something contradictory.

I find it hard to understand why this kind of accounting is still considered science. The standard model of comets is so wildy wrong, it's absolutely laughable. Comets are electrical, as is the universe. The sooner we all get that, the sooner w don't have to listen to ludicrous "science" telling us that although it looks like a rock, that it's darker than carbon, lighter than sponge, and still has water under pressure causing jets from a nucleus that clearly sees little sunlight, and has a surface temperature so cold, you can't touch it. Yet somehow that translates to heat, expansion, and gas jets erupting out.

No, this sucker's electrical! We expected ice, and when we tried to anchor to it, the surface didn't give way - not quite spongy carbon then? (if you read about the calculated mass!) Seriously, these "scientists" need to get a life, bite the big one, and accept they've been wrong for so long it's laughable. Accept that the Electric universe is the only way forwards for now at least - and embrace it. Then we'll stop getting all these "surprises" and "freak events" and "luck", and start to see it for what it really is.

But we "have an infinite amount of address space." Actually, NO, it is, in fact, quite finite: 128bits, to be exact. If we carve it up with the same pez-like abandon as the early IPv4 assignments, it will be even less "infinite".

Haven't heard anyone call it infinite. Sounds like a bit of a straw man. But I have heard it's enough to give each square centimetre of the Earth 2 million addresses each, or to uniquely address every cubic foot of the Milky Way galaxy, so it is quite a lot.
