Just FYI: Time has a different twist on the entire story than the 'trusted compatriot hands over rigged phone' story that has been the basis for comment around here. Their take on it was that Israeli intelligence was gradually triangulating the frequency of his phone over time, and was eventually able to setup some interference on his frequency such that he thought the phone was going bad (dropped calls and such I suppose). So, he sent the phone back to the factory. The Intelligence service, with the cooperation of the factory, intercepted the phone, placed the bomb, and then sent it back. Sometime later, they (somehow) get him on the phone, confirm it is him, and send the detonate code/tone/beep. Instant lobotomy. -- ____________________________________________________________________________ Doug Hughes Engineering Network Services System/Net Admin Auburn University doug@eng.auburn.edu Pro is to Con as progress is to congress
