Jim. since you are using UNH as a provider :-), let me assign you a
prefix which is covered by our 32 bit prefix 5f02:3000::/32. Just use
5f02:3000:84b1:7400::/64. You can further divide this prefix into
subnets as you like, using the 65-80 bits as subnet identifier.
I will set up a route for  you and the rest of the world won't have to
bother.

This will require you to reassign addresses on all your nodes, which is 
something you can demonstrate as easily done by IPv6 :-)
