A Business Case only A Retarded Monkey Could Understand

The decision of whether or not to deploy IPv6 is a decision that is largely dead simple. Oh no, not for Terry. Its an excuse to overanalyze, debate and investigate something ad infinitum in the hopes that a) people around will get too bored to notice this study has been ongoing for the past 6 years, and b) no one doing the study will ever be tasked with ever implementing the strange, overly complex and surely bespoke architecture that Terry invents to deploy IPv6.

IP (v4 or v6) is not the way forward

14# - IP (v4 or v6) is not the way forward. Just because everyone is using it does not mean we need also need to. It just means its worth funding a study to investigate it further.

Apologies but this post sat in

Most of us have now left the domain of Terry Telco, and thus this post sat dormant in the to-be-published queue. Apologies for this!

Terry-yaki

So it has been quite a while since we have posted on the list. Many of us have taken new jobs and have not been in sight of Terry for what seems like Donkey years now.  However, one of our colleagues from TerryTelco recently took a gig where he had to work with a particular Japanese service provider.  Much to his surprise, he found that Terries are not isolated to Europe or North America, but they also reside at the Telcos in Japan!  So thanks Mr. Rabbit (his code name) for discovering Terry's cousin in Japan, whom is BTW named Terry-yaki.  More posts on the new far-east Terries coming soon!

You know traffic lights are controlled over analogue private circuits, don't you Terry?

So Terry is doing some work in an exchange.

He's trying to locate a pair he needs to connect a customer.

He shorts out one of the pairs with his pliers, and hears a screeching sound
outside.

"That's weird" he thinks. "Wonder what it was". He thinks some more.
"maybe if I try it again the same thing will happen".

He shorts out the pair.

Sure enough. "SCREECH!!!"

"Wow!", says Terry to himself. "what's this????"

Terry knows his mate Fred is in the exchange, and is an old hand at this
sort of thing.

So Terry goes to get Fred.

"Fred, take a look at this". If I short out this pair here there's a weird
screeching noise comes from outside the exchange!"

"What", says Fred. "Show me".

"Sure", says Terry and shorts the pair out.

"SCREEEEECH! CRUNCH!!!!!!"

"Blimey", says Fred. That's sounded like it came from just outside. Let's
take a look."

Fred and Terry swipe themselves out of the building (separately of course -
otherwise they'd never get back in).

The sight that meets their eyes is one of disaster. Two cars have collided
at the crossroads outside the exchange.

"Oops!", says Fred. "You know traffic lights are controlled over analogue
private circuits, don't you Terry?"

In a world that doesn't
