HBGary planned to "blow the balls off Nmap"
Could you enlighten me? What is a better way to refer to /24 /16 /8 networks?

/16 obviously. Say it aloud a few times and just feel how it flows off the tongue. "slash sixteen, slash sixteen." So much smoother than getting tongue tied saying "class B" out loud...

OK, I thought there was a more technical reason for not using Class A/B/C.

What would you call 192/8? I would call it 192/8, but I don't even know if it's a valid network in the classful world.
