like I was crazy. One thing that really caught my eye was a poster which was displayed widely, apparently a security-reminder-of-the-month thing. This was the holiday season, and the poster showed Santa stopped at the gate submitting his bag to be searched. I'm surprised they didn't have the old boy being strip-searched. Anyway, I begged and begged but nobody would let me have one.
I really think the government is missing an opportunity by not selling NSA sweatshirts and such. Recently the Los Angeles coroner's office started selling souvenirs and they were overwhelmed by the popular demand. Especially as cryptography becomes more popular, the NSA's sinister-but- glamorous image could be a marketer's dream.

I fried of mine had some cool posters brought home by one of his parents who has works for the US Govt and whos job had ties to the NSA. Some fun as hell posters including on shoing a TeleVideo dumb terminal with a hatchet stuck in the top and the title along the lines of "Those wily hackers are out there, guard tht password". -craig
