i'd check to see what's going on on your router's firewall. (a) is it
running? (b) is it running nat? (c) are your forward rules working to

in the past we had little to do with other races. evolution teaches us that
we must fight that which is different in order secure land, food, and mates
for ourselves, but we must reach a point when the nobility of intellect
asserts itself and says: no. we need not be afraid of those we are
different, we can embrace that difference and learn from it.
