Interesting article. If I understand correctly, the equivalent for the decimal 216 (hexadecimal D8) must be "stormy" or "stupendous".

And in this case "209.216.230.240" translates to "stairway stupendous tracker upcoming".

Thanks for sharing.

This is neat but Im so disappointed by the chosen word list
