Ah! So somebody nudged me and pointed out that this is a reference to a
satirical story and a standard part of the American curriculum.

Heh. Well I was thinking along the lines of the effect of 100 streaming
users all filling up the router queues in the path to the server, with
full size packets (or replicas of the incoming) where in the normal case a
smaller ACK packet would be sent for every other TCP segment transmitted
by the sender.
Now I get the joke.
