Perhaps that was in a private message... or perhaps I'm just missing  
it.  Of the four messages I've got from you in this thread (including  
this one), none seem to touch on why this is a bad idea.  The closest  
I can see is a couple of paragraphs on why renumbering root servers is  
a bad idea.

Unfortunately I'll be on a plane back from LACNIC during NANOG, so I  
guess it'll have to wait.
