o my god...
Now he's done it.
do you have _any_ idea how hard we've been working, night and day year in year
out, to keep that information suppressed! Nobody must _ever_ know that TCP and
IP are alien technologies. it's bad enough that half of the commands
_obviously_ only make sense to aliens (I have it on firm authority that the
best way to tell an alien from a human is that the aliens actually _prefer_
EMACS) and that half the command-names appear to be the
phonetically-transcribed utterances of people recovering from
anesthetics - but to have someone actually break the silence and admit the
origin of the IN-ADDR-ARPA notation... well, it'll be absolutely obvious to
everyone from here on in.
