Wierd hostname award


We changed broadband provider for the office today, imagine my surprise to discover, wilst idly tracerouting (as you do), that the gateway server is called "gay-dsl1.*****.uk". I wonder in what respects gay dsl differs from the hetero variety we've been used to? (answers on a postcard)

So, new broadband provder, please accept a "most surprising hostname" award.
