According to the book _TCP/IP Blueprints_, IPv6 allocates 128 bits 
total.  I think you just mostly described a MAC address ;)  It has 6 8 bit 
octets.  IPv6 should have 16 octets.  Chriss' trick would work fine if you 
passed the delimiter.  IPv6 uses a colon ";".

Neat trick though.........

Michael: Thanks for posting the "challenge."  It was quite enjoyable.
