[BIENFAIT NUTLY NEWS-MongerItaville,Co1]REPORTWHORES FOR the Bienfait Nutly News spent the night in drunken, drug-crazed revelry at the home of A DANGEROUSLY CRAZED VIOLENT PSYCHO KILLER TO BE NAMED LATER, while waiting for the CoalDust Saloon to open for the day so that they could celebrate the 'Pull-It,Sir Prize' they are certain to be awarded by UNCLAD-PuN* for their contributions to the Bienfait Nutly News Special, entitled '!!!KILL THE CHILDREN!!! * Union for Naked Child Love & Death - Pedophiles und Necrophiles Bubba Rom Dos, a fictional character from 'The True Story of the InterNet' manuscripts being circulated by an underground computer cult gratefully deadicated to the memory of Jerry Garcia, rode into Bienfait on a Pink Elephant about 6 a.m., as the ninth case of beer bit the dust and the rosy pink cheeks of the sonofgomez began peeking slowly under the whore rising to meet the thick, dark fog lingering in her mind from the pill that had been slipped into her drink at bar-closing time the night before. "Onward through the Fog!" she mumbled, as she was handed her first offical bong of the same-new-day by Oat Willie. She had just a couple of hours to get home and get ready for another dreary day at the Junior-High ten KILLometers down the road, in Estevan. She saw Bubba Rom Dos slowly appearing out of the fog and wisely turned so that her butt was up against the wall she was using for balance. The drunken whord of Nutly News reportwhores, gathered from around the world for the illustrious occassion, took the appearance of Bubba, widely known as a crazed, drunken pedophile representing a long lineage of voices barfing in the wilderness, to mean that the BNN promotional announcement (cleverly disguised as a news story) was about to come to an end, and it was time to begin the serious work of actually writing the News Special, which was thus far only a vague concept consisting of ludicrous ideas thrown out at random during a series of mumbled and slurred, semi-incoherent ramblings in between hashish-induced laughing spasms, munchies attacks, and pissing contests of both a physical and conceptual nature. "I guess it's time to put in that right-square bracket." Defcon McCullagh Chainsaw informed the Author. "What the hell is it really called?" the Author asked, causing the gathered reportwhores to pause whatever they were doing and search their minds for the proper word, or wonder if it wasn't just called, 'the right-square bracket.' The attempted mental exercise was to little avail, since the MongerItaville official motto is, "It's always drunkest just before dawn." and they quickly found themselves sucked into the Grateful Void in which one realizes that the Grateful Secret Of Life is properly balancing one's drug intake and proceeds to slowly suck on a fresh beer to counter the effects of the last bong. The Author surveyed the suddenly serious somber scribes, and quiety ended the promotional announcement disguised as a news report by typing a]

Epilogue 2/0 - SPACE ALIENS HIDE MY DRUGS!!! _____________________________________________ *** BIENFAIT NUTLY NEWS SPECIAL *** ********************** *** KILL THE CHILDREN !!! *** ********************** Introduction By: A DANGEROUSLY CRAZED VIOLENT PSYCHO KILLER TO BE NAMED LATER It is with great fondness and trepidation that I recall the wonderful summer days spent on the ball diamonds of Austin, Texas, in the late 1970's. Behind the dugout, under the stands, sharing a quick toke with other members of Armadillo World HeadQuarters' jock-supporters--fans and players of the legendary PSYCHO KILLERS, widely recognized as the most dangerous-to-themselves opponents in the history of the Grand Game, no matter where or how it was played. Slapping David Byrne upside his Talking Head for Bogarting the Belushi and then realizing that his momentary lapse in proper drug-addict ettiquette was a result of his attention being rivetted to some terrifying incident of reality taking place out on the ball diamond. Seeing the outfielder nonchalantly digging his toe in the dirt at the edge of the infield as a conference took place on the pitcher's mound between the other members of the Austin Police Department ball team. Watching in horror as the outline of a small finger could be seen poking out from the dirt as the outfielder prodded his spiked toe in the dirt, and then watching it being covered again, as he unconsciously tapped it back down in the dirt. Knowing that you should have taken little Delbert's body to the river and washed it down, with Tex Thomas & the Dangling Wranglers singing, "I Am Washed In The Rum of the Lamb" softly in the background, according to the instructions Rocky Erickson had received from Mars through the fillings in his teeth after stepping out of the elevator on the 13th floor, only to find himself in a vast wasteland of the mind where fear and superstition coming from the Real (TM) floors of his brain structure would sometimes cause him to doubt the voices. Hearing C.J. Parker, The County Mountie, drunkenly singing the ending strains of the chorus of 'Armadillo (Are You Sure Jesus Done It This Way?)': "And they catch those fly-balls on the head. And they never steal second, they steal first instead, Cause they learned all those moves that they make, From Panama Red." I don't wish to end up boring you with the youthful reminesces of a doddering, senile old fart reliving the Glory Days in a time and place where mental instability was honored and valued, whether it was C.J. Parker singing about drug-induced mental instability of the Psycho Killers, or Kinky Friedmann singing the praises of organic mental disorder by hosting a Charles Whitman Memorial Reunion bash, with the Texas Jewboys playing their harps in the background... Where was I...? Oh yes, I don't wish to end up boring you, but I'm a doddering, senile old fart, so what the fuck can you expect, eh? The way this relates to CRYPTology is... At the end of MeatSpace lies...the Crypt! "Everybody want's to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die." "Nobody gets out of here alive." "I cooked Belushi's last spoon!" These are just a few of the song-titles which reflect the inherent understanding of the muse that the rotting MeatSpace carcasses of the CypherPunks will eventually turn to dust, but that the stench of their vile, sick and twisted, 'shunned by every decent citizen' ideas and philosophies will live on eternally in the biosemiotic evolution of analogue life-forms crystallizing into the digital bits and bytes which will exist forever in the CyberSpace home of virtual reality, the Eternity Server. It was a lack of the esoteric understanding held by the Circle of Eunuchs (AC/DC Rules!) Bienfait Nutly News reportwhores which led to DC (Direct Current) journalists to proclaim the "Death of the CypherPunks," not understanding that the Toad was not dead, but had merely turned into a Handsome Prince whose experiences in the bath houses of Sif Fiasco had led him to realize that Human Gus-Peter should be shared with all who wished to drink from the spigot of his knowledge, male *and* female, regardless of whether or not they were wearing panties. Where was I...? Oh, yes... The sudden appearance of Bubba Rom Dos at the celebration for the Pull-It,Sir Prize certain to be awarded for the, as yet, unwritten, "KILL THE CHILDREN!!!" Bienfait Nutly News Special, reminded those gathered of Bubba's infamous quote, "If murder is to have any meaning at all, you must kill your friends." After singing a few verses of Bang! Crosby, Deathly Still & Gnashing of Teeth's hit song, "If you can't kill the one you love...kill the one you're with." the reportwhores suddenly became stone-cold sober and, realizing that the Canadian Author is Stone-Cold Crazy (TM), instantly realized the true import of the Canadian AuthorTitty's efforts to drag the InfoWar being waged in CyberSpace down into MeatSpace (where they could kick the Author's sorry ass), by the confiscation of the physical tools which he used to mirror analogue life onto the digital plane, Electronically Forging ahead, past the historical boundaries of MeatSpace Identity, into the Multi-User Persona Paridigm where TruthMonger and [YourNameHere](a)dev.null are free to live together in peace and discord... Excuse me. I had to pause for a breath... Anyway, Armed Thugs With Massive MeatSpace Weaponry (TM) have a deathly fear of being transmorgified into Mental Midgets by the UnComprehensible InConceptual Distributed Digital Artistry (TM) taking place in the parts of the brain used by the muse-- which go far beyond the part of the brain where their own elevator stops, and they can go no further, because taking the stairs isn't in their job description and would probably get them in trouble with the union. Accordingly, they strike out like primitive savages at that which they do not understand, using their heavy clubs to destroy the tools which digital muses use to spam the MeatSpace Reality of the Decent Folk (TM) with the '8 Words George Carlin Can't Say On The InterNet' : 1. Shit 2. Piss 3. Fuck 4. Cunt 5. Cocksucker 6. Motherfucker 7. Tits 8. Comstockery ~~~~ From: Wordsmith <wsmith(a)wordsmith.org> To: linguaphile(a)wordsmith.org Subject: A.Word.A.Day--comstockery Comstockery (KOM-stok-uh-ree, KUM-) noun Censorship of literature and other forms of expression and communication because of perceived immorality or obscenity. [After Anthony COMSTOCK.] WORD HISTORY: Bowdlerism, named after Dr. Thomas Bowdler (1754-1825), has been around longer than Comstockery, named for Anthony Comstock (1844-1915). All Bowdler did to enter the world of common nouns was to expurgate Shakespeare, the Bible, and Gibbon's History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. On the other hand, Comstock, the organizer and secretary of the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice, helped destroy 160 tons of literature and pictures that he deemed immoral. Comstockery, the word honoring his achievements, is first recorded in 1905 in a letter by George Bernard Shaw to the New York Times: "Comstockery is the world's standing Joke at the expense of the United States.... It confirms the deep-seated conviction of the Old World that America is a provincial place, a second rate country-town civilization after all.". "The best argument for upholding this electronic Comstockery can be summed up in a single world: zoning."

Gary Lee Burnore and His Anti-Privacy Zealots are on the Warpath!

Why don't you just tell you child-molesting friend Gary Lee Burnore that if he would keep his pants zipped up around the children, he wouldn't need to hire you to fight his battles. If he didn't molest a child in Santa Clara, CA and then move to NC and register as a sex offender, the fact of his conviction for that crime wouldn't have been published for all to see on Nort Carolina's public registered sex offender's website, would it? Just because you don't like the message, don't shoot the messenger. This was the same loud-mouthed Burnore that previously said that republishing publicly available data to Usenet was acceptable, and that he had nothing to hide. Now he's pissed that someone else is following his own example. Anti-privacy kooks like you and DataBasix CEO Gary Lee Burnore are one of the best arguments for the existence of anonymous remailers. You and your friends at DataBasix have a hard time bullying and harassing people into silence that you can't identify, don't you? Lest anyone forget, Gary launched his first tirade against anonymity when someone tipped off his molestation victim's mother and school officials anonymously. Whistleblowing has always been one of the important functions of anonymous remailers. Of course, Gary denied the charges and accused the victim's anonymous benefactor of "harassment" and "libel". Now the public record shows that Gary was guilty after all, by his own admission and guilty plea. Belinda, if you want to make Gary's "miserable life an absolute hell", why don't you just marry him? Now if I really wanted to start a vicious rumor, I'd wonder aloud whether Raleigh, NC's two most famous resident kooks, Gary Burnore and the Rev. Steve Winter are really one and the same person!

You need to be careful about posting information like that about your children, especially since there is a registered sex offender, Gary Lee Burnore <gburnore(a)databasix.com>, living in your neighborhood. Why did you post information like that publicly in the first place if you didn't want people to read it? Also, it's amazing what people can dredge up on you. One fellow was harassed by having a 10 year old California tax lien posted worldwide to usenet in an attempt to silence his dissenting opinions.

Epilogue 3/0 - SPACE ALIENS HIDE MY DRUGS!!! (Now containing special advertising inserts geared toward the reader's individual interests, based on your choice of password sfor your secret encryption keys.)

Epilogue 3/0 - SPACE ALIENS HIDE MY DRUGS!!! _____________________________________________ *** BIENFAIT NUTLY NEWS SPECIAL *** ********************** *** KILL THE CHILDREN !!! *** ********************** ...Oh, yeah...now I remember! TalkTV! It's a bastard-child of two forms of media--radio and television--whose parents could never truly enter into a real marriage because of slight differences in their techno-ethnic backgrounds. Nonetheless, CITV-Edmonton has a TalkTV program which is a televised radio call-in talk show.apparently designed to circumvent the potential danger of another 'War of the Worlds' fiasco resulting from the tendency of gullible Sheeple to believe everything they hear, and thus ending with them racing en-mass off the edge of a cliff because the current demand for the teaching of equality in the educational system does not allow the students to be taught that there is a difference between sheep and lemmings. [The New World Mathematical Order Equality Equations: 0 + 1 = 1 ; 1 + 2 = 1 ; 4 * 7 = 1 ; (38 -12) * (6 + 4) = 1 "Why can't we just all get a one?" ~ Rodney King, after being beaten by L.A. police for driving faster than 1 mph] These facts alone have little or no bearing on the point I am about to make, but, taken together with a giant leap of logic, they lead to the unmistakable conclusion that I am receiving secret messages from the Gods of Communication through TV, radio, email, InterNet browsers and the things pinned to the bulletin board at the local laundromat. The messages say, "KILL...KILL...KILL...KILL..." This fact in itself is not particularly troubling, nor even noteworthy, for that matter, since, as a TechnoInfoWarrior, I am free to slip into the Righteous Armour of the TruthMonger Multi-User InterNet Persona and use my massive hidden stocks of excess commas, overused capital letters and misplaced quote marks to wreak havoc upon the English language in a frenzy of random slaughter that will eventually lead to a total draining of the life-blood of meaning coursing throughout the veins of the ascii-output thrown upon the Screen of Reality (TM) which is no longer Silver, but any color that the end-user chooses it to be, with a click of a mouse-button. {I am once again losing my train of thought, here, but please bear with me, as I suspect that I will find it devilishly hiding on a side-track of the next few paragraphs.} The Jesus Futures Market--run by TOTO Enterprises in Bienfait, Saskatchewan, and backed by BlackTar Junk Bonds-- reflects the evolution of religious-faith technology into the Digital Salvation Age where Jesus becomes a true Multi-User Savior who can redeem the sins of anyone who has a credit-card number that can be used to receive a valid password from the SoulCheck Validation System that allows them access to a wide variety of Redemption sites capable of meeting their individual needs according to the nature of the Adult Sex sites they have been visiting (although the.individual Redemption WebSites reserve the right to add surcharges for the redemption of sins involving graphic reproductions of sex acts with life-forms or inanimate objects which are not covered by the Original Crucifixion). As well, the proliferation of WebSites reflecting the validity of a wide range of religious beliefs (i.e. - GodHatesFags.com, 'God's Canadian Biblical Hate Page', not to mention the ever popular http://www.balaams-ass.com/journal/balaam.htm) has led end-users to the realization that they are no longer limited to the 'official' bullshit being fed to them by government, corporate, religilous and social leaders, but can actually make their own bullshit official by slapping it into HTML format, uploading it to the InterNet, and making it as valid a part of Virtual Reality as the MSNBC news URLs singing the praises of a kindlier, gentler IRS. In fact, if you can convince some other lunatics to 'Link' to your WebSite, in return for providing 'links' to the bullshit and garbage that they have made manifest from what started out as a bad case of gas from eating too many refried beans, then you have a shot at the BigTime (TM), perhaps becoming part of some Ring of Worms that will throw total strangers randomly into your own professed belief system, even if you just made it up when you were drunk and have no idea what it all means when you, yourself, read your own WebSite, yourself, even when you are drunk again (like now). So, as you can plainly see, it is equally easy to get back on track to what may have been the original point I was trying to make, by throwing a crossing-switch in your mind which links the validity of all religious beliefs, regardless of their truth, in Reality (TM) (as long as they are an HTML formatted part of the New World DisOrder arising from an unregulated InterNet), with the equal validity of believing each and every wave, bit or byte of analogue or digital information capable of knocking on the Doors of Perception, as a Message from MadDogInPossessionOfTheLastFalseSmile exhorting The Perceiver to "KILL...KILL...KILL!!!" everything that moves, and some that don't, on the theory that, since THE LIE is the 'Mother of the 10,000 Lies', whereas The Truth (TM) is hard to come by, rabidly biting them all so that they will die a slow and agonizing death (unless they get the whole series of rabies shots in time) and letting Dog sort them out will be mathematically verifiable as being in the overall best interests of WeTheSheeple, in the long run, over the long haul, on average, for the most part, despite the pathetic whining of individual survivors of The RAGE (TM) (i.e. - Fred Goldman), who selfishly petition for individual justice at the expense of the current hit-and-miss justice system which averages out (in the long run, over the long haul, for the most part) instead of just moving to Russia, if they don't like it. In short, the entrance bar on the Turnstile of the Gate Heaven has been lowered by WeTheNetizens, so that pretty much anyone can jump over it if they are short on officially recognized righteousness tokens, as long as their beliefs and actions have been validated by a single hit on their "HOW MANY DEAD BODIES DOES IT TAKE TO SPELL, 'I *TOLD* YOU I WAS CRAZY'" WebSite. Thus it follows, that MeatSpace Authorities who choose to engage InfoWarriors in battle on the physical plane are ultimately responsible for any mayhem and destruction that may result from the transmission of Digital InformationWaves (which are fairly harmless in their natural optic fiber cable environment), over the Analogue MeatSpace Medium of a human brain which has a level of electric resistance that makes it a bad conductor, leading to the buildup of the heat of inner rage that can only be released by the gentle breeze provided by the heat-reduction attachment on a rapid-fire assault rifle being fired in a suitable environment, such as a Denny's Restaurant, a Post Office, or within 500' of a school. ******** Text Only Commercial Break [I regret that the added expense of bribing my oldest nephew to lend me his laptop in order to route around the damage caused by Decent People With Family Values (TM) has forced me to rent space in the 'SPACE ALIENS HIDE MY DRUGS!!!' manuscripts to A-Word-A-Day, who have kindly provided me with a steady supply of excess commas, overused capital letters and misplaced quote marks gleaned from the rough drafts of their work by consciencious editors who are hoping that the Author will 'choke' on them.] ******** CAN'T POSSIBLY BE TRUE * Robert Gettman Boone, 51, was arrested at his home in a Baltimore, Md., suburb in January and charged as the man who had been firing two-foot-long, homemade bombs from his front yard, across a busy thoroughfare, to a lot behind a car wash. According to police, Boone told them, "There's nothing to get excited about," that he was "just doing some experiments with high explosives." (Later, it took authorities almost eight hours to remove all the explosives that were in his home.) * In September, police at Los Angeles International Airport stopped Mark L. Kulp, 34, at a metal detector before his flight home to East Grand Forks, Minn. In his carry-on bags, Kulp had several guns, 100 rounds of ammunition, knives, handcuffs, a ski mask, and a fake sheriff's badge. The police confiscated the equipment and detained Kulp, and even learned that he was wanted on an arrest warrant in Minnesota for threatening a police officer. However, they decided they could not arrest him because the guns were not loaded, and when Minnesota authorities declined to send anyone to bring him back, Kulp was released.

(The 1989, 1990, and 1991 books were co-authored with John J. Kohut and Roland Sweet.) Chuck Shepherd does not sell books, himself. ******** We Now Return You To Our Regularly Scheduled Chaos ******** Insertion of an advertisement for publications by Chuck Shepherd, perpetrator of the News Of The Weird, in a space bought and paid for by A-Word-A-Day's Anu(s), should be taken as proof of the veracity of my long-standing claims to be a drunken, senile old fart whose inability to control either his bladder, his mind or his mouth, makes him a natural-born TruthMonger (A Subsiduary Of Bubba Rom Dos Enterprises). Speaking of which... I need to take a leak and grab another beer, so this seems as good a place as any to end this portion of the Bienfait Nutly News "KILL THE CHILDREN!!!" Special. So..."Smoke 'em if you got 'em.", grab yourself a Brewski, and write you mom an email with no capital letters or punctuation marks (in order to help save the linguistic environment from the ravaging effects of the hole in the Bozo Layer of the Author's mind, leading to the creative juices of the muse dripping down to form a bizarre mixture with his procreative, gastric and intestinal juices, resulting in a conceptual cocktail containing chaotic corruptions of linguistic manipulations which have the capacity to suck the creative juices out of both the minds and the cocks of those currently under Grand Jury investigation by Special Persecutor, Dimitri Vulis KOTM, for CypherPunks Activities.

OpenBSD possibly affected by Canadian Export Laws [Fwd]

To: announce(a)openbsd.org Subject: Urgent appeal: Gov't action on encryption: Please respond today!! From: ian(a)darwinsys.com (Ian F. Darwin) Date: Mon, 20 Apr 1998 09:47:11 -0400 Sender: announce-request(a)openbsd.org OpenBSD is a secure operating system. To thrive, we need to be able to continue making reliable and secure electronic communication technology available. It is possible that the Canadian government is about to take (well meaning but ill-informed?) policy decisions that would result in the curtailment of our rights to export OpenBSD as we know it. Apologies for the short notice but it appears that the Canadian government may be trying to put a fast one over by having a sham "public comment" period before going ahead with their own agenda. Possibly not. In any case, the DEADLINE FOR COMMENTS IS APRIL 21, so please act on this message today. [If you get this a day or two after the deadline, please send a short note anyway; better late than never!]. Thanks Ian Darwin ian(a)darwinsys.com ian(a)openbsd.org ----- Begin Included Message ----- April 17, 1998 >From Mark D. Hughes Institute for the Study of Privacy Issues (ISPI) ISPI4Privacy(a)ama-gi.com The following was posted in: GLIC Alert (the Global Internet Liberty Campaign Newsletter) Volume 2, Issue 5 April 13, 1998 http://www.gilc.org [B4.4] Canada Sets the Stage for Encryption Action On March 31, 1998, leaders of Canada's cryptography industry and privacy advocates met in Ottawa to discuss and suggest an encryption plan for Canada. Wired News reported that "the consensus among the group was that Canada should continue its current stance of not implementing any domestic crypto controls, and liberalize its existing export policies." The article quotes David Jones, president of Electronic Frontier Canada (EFC is a GILC founding member): "We are firmly opposed to any policy or legislation that would prohibit the export of encryption of encryption products, either stored or transmitted." In February, the Canadian government invited public comment when it issued "A Cryptography Policy Framework for Electronic Commerce," where it depicts several different cryptography possibilities. According to Mark Hughes, executive director of the Victoria-based Institute for the Study of Privacy Issues (ISPI): "its call for public comment is, in my view, a cruel joke because the paper was only just issued (February 21, 1998) and all public comment must be made by April 21, 1998. As few Canadians comprehend what encryption is and how it affects them, two months is simply not enough time for Canadians to sufficiently educate themselves in order to make informed comments on the future of their electronic privacy."

paid for making war on Iran & The Improbable Inventor of Frequency-Hopping Radio

Tuesday 4/21/98 9:32 AM J Orlin Grabbe John Young John Gilmore ABQ J 4/21/98 A6 U.S. Aided Communist Foe Pol Pot Richard Reeves LOS ANGELES - ... Even after he fell from national power, we helped supply and protect Pol Pot because the Khmer Rouge was tying down large number of occupying North Vietnamese troops. These are some of the names of the evil who were or still are paid friends: o Saddam Hussein, paid for making war on Iran. o Gulbuddin Hekmatry, who made his name throwing acid in the faces of female students in Kabul who dared to wear western dress, paid for making was against communists in Afghanistan. o The Taliban, the religious warriors we helped train to fight communists who are beating or killing those same women right now in Afghanistan. o Manuel Noriega, the soldier-thug we encouraged to overthrow elections in Panama because we did not like the results. o Mobuto Sese Seko, one Joseph Mobutu, our man in Zaire. o Jonas Savimbi, in constant war in Angola The list goes on. It has for a long time and will, even if communism is dead as a national security threat of the United States. In may of these cases our interest involved resources - oil, usually, ... Details of exactly how the US helped Saddam are coming out. http://jya.com/whpfiles.htm http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ Lets change to a more positive topic. Lively people. Scientific American, April 1998, 95, Spread Spectrum Radio ... The Improbable Inventor of Frequency-Hopping Radio She was gorgeous, glamorous and talented. And she had a mind for technology. In 1941 actress Hedy Lamarr, along with the avant-garde composer and musician George Anthiel filed for a patent to cover their Secret Communication System, a device designed to help the U.S. military jump from one frequency to another, thus making enemy interception and jamming difficult. Born Hedwig Maria Eva Kiesler in Vienna, Austria, Lamarr may have gotten the idea of frequency hopping while she was married to Fritz Mandl, an armament manufacturer who sold munitions of Adolph Hitler. Through a marriage arranged by her parents, Lamarr was Mandls trophy wife, and she accompanied him to the many business dinners and meetings, where unbeknownst to the participants, she silently learned about Axis war technology. After four years with Mandl, Lamarr, a staunch anti-Nazi, fled to London, where MGMs Louis B. Mayer discovered her and convinced her to move to the U.S. In Hollywood she me Antheil, who helped her figure out a way to synchronize the frequency hopping between the radio transmitter and receiver. Their invention, which they gave to the U.S. government for free, called for two paper rolls, similar to those used in player pianos, punched with an identical pattern of random holes. One of the rolls would control the transmitter on the submarine which the other would be launched with the receiver on the torpedo. Though ingenious, the device was deemed too cumbersome for use in World War II. Still, the seminal idea of frequency hopping lingered. By the late 1950s U.S. Navy contractors were able to take advantage of early computer processors for controlling and synchronizing the hopping sequence. Since then, the U.S. military has deployed more sophisticated techniques with even faster processors in costly, classified devices, including satellite communications systems. And today. And today the technology has become widespread in cell phones and in personal communications (PCS), among other civilian applications. - D.R.H. HEDY LAMARR, the Hollywood actress, was the co-receipient of a patent (inset) for basic technology that is now widely used in cell phones and personal communications services(PCS). US News & World Report, April 20, 1998 page 16 PEOPLE IN THE NEWS Saying shes been humiliated and embarrassed ... has suffered mental pain and anguish, the sultry 1940s screen star Hedy Lamarr, 84, has filed a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages from the Corel Corp., a Canadian software maker. The case, now in U.S. District Court, claims Corel used her image with authorization. My impression is that NSA attempted de-emphasize the most important PRACTICAL technology for spread spectrum frequency-hopping an ciphering/authentication: shift register sequence [Galois fields, mod 2]. But this is not working largely because of Internet http://www.semionoff.com/cellular/hacking/phreaking/ NSA, a user of Forth, also tried to do hide threaded code technology. This isn't working for NSA either. Let's hope for settlement so that we can get on to more, if I can even imagine such, projects. Later bill
