This is great stuff. I work in a datacenter, and one of our favorite interview questions is: "Describe how the internet works... but describe it to me like I'm your grandmother". It's a ruthlessly cruel question for a group interview, but it helps weed out the people who memorized some switch and router commands to pass the CCNP or Juniper test, and leaves you with the people who actually "get it".
