“What is the “17th letter” ????”

Shhhh, saying that letter out here beyond the trees causes heart palpitations and rending of garments.
It’s hard to get a figure for how many aliens much less illegal aliens work within our gubamint.
The grays used to rule but the reptilians&minions have certainly emerged into the light of day the last few administrations as well.
If the universe is a hologram as some experts might propose, then how many dimensions are there really?
I know there’s only one twilight zone, we live in it every day. What’s your IP address worth *-?
sounds just like what the CIA would be doing.

Seriously? Try going over your alphabet. Hope you can figure it out.
This would have made some sense back when we first were having a really serious IP crunch. A /8 subnet is 16,777,216 addressable IP addresses. If the government actually does find these addresses surplus to needs, they could have split it into /16 blocks, and auctioned off 256 separate networks of 65,536 addresses each. Bet that would have gotten some interest.
Of course, the actual solution to fixing the address shortage is to move to IPv6, but that effort seems to have largely stalled. Also, from what I’ve seen where it has been implemented, it has been done in an extraordinarily wasteful manner. For instance, I’ve seen reports of folks being allocated a /64 of IPv6 space. If I were allocated a block like that, I’d be able assign 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 unique IP addresses on my local network. I figure that is a bit more than I am likely to need. Even if each location was assigned a /96 subnet, you’d still have more IPv6 addresses available to you (4,294,967,296) than an entire /10 subnet in IPv4.
