               Interesting data that flows through the network

So after Mark [1] and I helped John the paper millionaire of a dotcom get
connected, I downloaded a network monitor I wrote and installed it on his
system (some problems due to some changes in the way dlopen() works
internally that I was relying on).

It was interesting to see some of the network activity he gets at his end of
the connection. It seems his cable provider uses private IP addresses for
something. I'm not sure all of what was flowing through since the monitor
only shows packet headers and not the data, but it would be interesting to
find out.
