Depend on a lot of factors, but I might call down to TT/99 or AK(obviously usually rerasing w/ AA/KK), especially if I have position. I don't agree all PPs are equal. At least the mid/hi PPs can win some pots without help. If for some reason there are several callers and I'm last to act or don't think it will get reraised, I'd call with some lower PPs as well.

Edit: Now that I think about, I would almost never cold call 6x with anything other then AA/KK/QQ barring special situations or a strong read(in a ring game)
