I had always thought that but then I read this article:
http://homepages.tesco.net/~J.deBoynePollard/FGA/dont-obscure-your-dns-data.html

It seems to make sense. After all, they are public IP addresses, and by 
trying to obscure them I might either create or hide a typo that would 
prevent proper assistance.

Maybe Jonathan is wrong but the argument seems logical on the surface.

Unfortunately I don't see where this is effectively different from:
nat on $ext_if from <kw_net_minus> -> 66.100.28.136/29 source-hash

Except I'm using a table and the "to any" isn't specified, but it isn't 
necessary when the form is:
nat on $ext_if from !$ext_if -> $ext_if:0

But I do like using the macro for the nat pool.

But I'll certainly try to change things around, just in case.

Thanks.

Chris
