IP addresses starting with 24 (e.g. 24/8, the entire 24 space)
are called the "cable modem block" which implies that Colin is
trying to feed out on this type connection. This means it
is possible that his provider does not allow inbound connect
requests, from others, to port 8000. In _some_ cases,
upgrading to a "business" class service (from "residential")
(at additional cost) can fix this issue. And running a firewall
at the sending location would also stop this, unless the firewall
admin opened that port to inbound connect requests.
