Yikes.   I just looked that up.

Not something I could get around sitting in a hotel room.  The solution
I mentioned about using port 80 for ssh was something I used when I was
at a conference in DC and the host only allowed http/https traffic to
machines outside the building.  I used it to ssh to a machine that was
outside, so it wasn't like this case of trying to get two machines
behind the firewall together...
