As for transmitters in printers, this sounds like a variant. Plus, I wouldn't think there was enough time between the start of the buildup of the U.S. response and the air attacks for the plan to be hatched, for the Iraqis to place and receive orders, etc. And the chance of some random printer ending up in an air defense station seems unlikely. And so on.
Besides the fact that the US wasn't exporting anything to IRAQ at the time, along with most of the rest of the western world, where would they have bought printers from? (Unless of course they were purchased before the invasion of Kuwait, but they were our allies until we misled them... hmmmmmmmm...) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ryan Anderson - <Pug Majere> "Who knows, even the horse might sing" Wayne State University - CULMA randerso@ece.eng.wayne.edu Ohio = VYI of the USA PGP Fingerprint - 7E 8E C6 54 96 AC D9 57 E4 F8 AE 9C 10 7E 78 C9 -----------------------------------------------------------------------
