-
-   "The one security concern raised by this memo is that ICMP black holes
-   are often caused by over-zealous security administrators who block
-   all ICMP messages.  It is vitally important that those who design and
-   deploy security systems understand the impact of strict filtering on
-   upper-layer protocols.  The safest web site in the world is worthless
-   if most TCP implementations cannot transfer data from it.  It would
-   be far nicer to have all of the black holes fixed rather than fixing
-   all of the TCP implementations."
-
-                           Golden words :-).
