I'm a 46. I'm far from a geek though. I'm just a well-informed person on the subject of things that seem abstract, like space, technology, sci fi. What, they don't ask if we've listened to video game soundtracks?

169.256.256.123 is an impossible IP address.
the highest the numbers in the octets can be is FF (in hexadecimal) which equal 255.

Yay more dorkiness to me. That was easy.
