Conversely, the mere fact that the NIC has no place on their domain
name application form for an IP number indicates to me that a machine
on the internet need not have a NIC assigned IP address. How thoroughly
bizarre!

I set up lots of unconnected networks. Everyone of them has a registered
IP network. The turnaround on processing the IP registration (via CA*net)
was about 30 minutes, inclusive of uucp email forwarding delays.

I really don't understand what the big deal is? It can't be because you're
lazy, as you have plenty of energy to post ...
