I note that on bootup there was two attempts at DHCPREQUEST
and about a dozen DHCPDISCOVER attempts.

There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. 
Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations--these are mortal, and their life
is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with,
work with, marry, snub, and exploit--immortal horrors or everlasting splendors.
