Almost certainly.

To add to Duncan's comments, quantum cryptography involves the relation between _expertise_ in cryptography and _verbosity_ in talking about it. The more someone knows, the less they talk, and the less someone knows, the more they talk. Expertise x Verbosity = d, where d is of course Detweiler's Constant. At least this is how I learned it in Crypto 101. Uncertainly, --Tim May -- .......................................................................... Timothy C.

What a relief! Now I understand why LD's postings averaged about nine zillion words each. He was just following a natural law! OK, now I'll try an experiment on my own.... "Cryptography." Wheee! I'm an expert! :) :) :) :) :) - -- ........................................................................ Philippe D.
