heard of short-wave? All that Bin Laden has to do is broadcast the words, "Allah akbar" and his operatives execute "Plan A," "inshaalha" and they execute "Plan B," "Bert & Ernie" and they execute "Plan C." They don't need American TV, folks. (Reminds me of the aliens in INDEPENDENCE DAY, using our communications satellites...)

Still plenty of "numbers" stations on the air. ( Background" A "numbers station" is a short-wave station where transmissions consists of someone (human or software generated) monotonously reading a sequence of numbers and nothing else. Probably a messages encoded with a OTP). Watch it now. We don't want the gov't getting the idea that all short-wave radios need to registered. -Neil
