OK, the reason why I chose 10.10.10.* is simple and stupid: Back in
the days when I started playing network games with my friends, I was
the only one who had a *little* understanding of TCP/IP. So I got to
choose IP adresses. And I chose the 10.10.10.0 net because it was
easy to remember for everybody. That's it :-)
