The demonstration is easy.
1) Convince them that it is really no-goodnik to show private addrs on the
Internet.
2) then make them believe it religiously.
3) then show them a traceroute and explain that everyone on the planet has
traceroute.
The only reasonable conclusion, from that sequence, is that ALL routers and
routing hosts need a static IP addr.
