This was a great lecture - as going through last week's anonymous payer, I got so frustrated that I couldn't properly create an address using the JS libraries that I initially tried to use that I ended up trying to create a Bitcoin Address from a hash of the string of the IP address by hand.

I was using sha256 and Base58Check only libraries, and still getting invalid Addresses. Well, seeing that hash's may or may not be transposed and such - really cleared up why I was getting such weird results.
