Dear All, Is there anything in First Contact to do with Crypto at all? Just that it opened out here today, and I'm going to see it.

I think that the character Data uses either PGP or some sort of crypto system to lock up the ship's computer. At least if you spend any reasonable time here in cypherpunks, coderpunks, or other crypto related areas, you should recognise what he uses. I have not seen seen it; I am guessing that maybe they are using something to excite the juices of us Internet folks. Mark

Actually, I believe Data encrypts the main computer with a fractal key!
