Well.. you're actually very close, but only because that machine happens
to
be located in pine hall, just not in room 115.. (I think it's actually in
135).
Pine hall, room 115 happens to be the main office of stanford's networking
group, and the technical contact for all stanford networking issues.
you will get the same result for any address in the 171.6[4-7].X.X range,
even though those addresses may be scattered all over campus (or all over
northern california in the case of our DSL services.)
Oh, the result returned is not a traceroute, but rather a whois..
