Roland, I'm not asking that source address validation be hardwired. Merely the 
default. I don't think any of us want new operators forwarding packets even in 
disconnected networks if they don't understand these issues. Let the default 
for new routers be s.a.v. and I don't expect much trouble. Leave the default as 
is and I'll expect linear trouble with growth.   Paul
