	I recall when ECN first came out and firewalls would block it causing me
issues on my Linux boxes sending list mail out.  It was a small enough percentage
that I mostly ignored it, but this will cause trouble for people who still
haven't fixed their broken firewalls.

	I encourage almost everyone on nanog to watch this talk.
