On Cypherpunks, fc@all.net (Dr. Frederick B.

Strange, Dr Fred, this isn't the 'actual text' I saw quoted in RISKS Digest - did you 'fix' it so that it was a bit more credible? Dr Fred's paragraph: FBC> 100% wrong - he was an insider, he had a great deal of assitance, FBC> he had cryptographic devices and keys, and he had special insider FBC> knowledge. If he was an Air Force captain, he could not have been FBC> all that young. Whizzkids are usually considered teenagers. FBC> Anyone know of any teenaged AF captains these days? RISKS Digest's paragraph: RISKS> 100% wrong - he was an insider, he had a great deal of RISKS> assistance, he had cryptographic devices and keys, and he had RISKS> special insider knowledge. If he was a Navy captain, he could RISKS> not have been all that young. Whizzkids are usually considered RISKS> teenagers. Anyone know of any teenaged Navy captains? Has anyone seen the REAL IW article, so we can tell what was really said? The age difference between an AF captain and a Navy captain is enough that one could be considered a 'whizzkid' in the military, while the other could not. -- #include <disclaimer.h> /* Sten Drescher */ To get my PGP public key, send me email with your public key and Subject: PGP key exchange Key fingerprint = 90 5F 1D FD A6 7C 84 5E A9 D3 90 16 B2 44 C4 F3 Junk email is NOT appreciated.
