Ooops, sorry.  Bad editing on my part.

Not sure where else to go from here.  I think allowing 10.0.0.100 to be
visible is a bad idea.

The fact that you couldn't traceroute it Hilton is a perfect example of
why it is a bad idea.  I suppose it isn't really inconveniencing anyone
else at this state (that we know of).
