Well, I'm not insisting on anything.  I was just wondering what others are 
doing.  Actually it has always seemed logical to me to use public address 
behind a firewall.  It was the networking group at my company that informed 
me that private space is used behind firewalls just as a matter of  course.

My own ISP gives me one address and so I use a private address space 
inside my firewall.  I was thinking that if my firewall tunnels to 6bone
then my inside machines could have private IPv4 addresses and public 
IPv6 addresses.
