Another one on a car I've seen many times is
68 ASCII
I don't have an ASCII chart available. What does this one mean?
the letter "D". Hmmmmmm. What kind of car? (Dodge?)
I think it's an Oldsmobile of some kind. Possibly the owner's initial. I see that car often. If I ever run into its driver I'll have to remember to ask what the significance of the 68/'D' is. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.3 iQBVAgUBLbs2xDSSmvXojb+5AQHH2QIAoqpSiFECrt1Wl7W19EnrW5lYOe5AbtgM bLPVjLyDTSdP2KqzDibKwk/9oS7dg66/PiIgnL6TtjuoRS4qqkeqPQ== =QSjv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Internet: mdbomber@w6yx.stanford.edu Matt Bartley GPS: 33 49' 117 48' PGP keys on finger and servers

As Tim May pointed out, the letter D if 68d is read and the letter 'h' if 68h is read. Its a joke. Get it? h if its read in hex, and D if its read in Decimal. Ben. ____ Renegade academician. They're a dangerous breed when they go feral. -James P. Blaylock in "Lord Kelvin's Machine"

I didn't add to that thread. I did write several long articles about crypto, objects, toolkits, etc., but I guess stuff like this is outside the current charter of Cypherpunks, as there has been little comment on my proposals today (I'm reading my mail sequentially, and mostly I've seen stuff about guns, Oldsmobiles, inner cities, warrantless searches, housing projects, ASCII codes ("Hey, _codes_ man!"), and nothing on the threads on crypto toolkits. Oh well.) --Tim May -- .......................................................................... Timothy C.
