While I appreciate your attempt at humor, this is not information which helps me.  Perhaps you are not familiar with the basics of socket programming. This is all fine and dandy, and it is good to "know what you don't know".  If you're interested, look at the third argument to "create_connection": http://docs.python.org/2/library/socket.html
