For those into such things, it might be worthwhile to check out the articles on the last page of Science News, Vol. 144, No. 9, August 28, 1993. Interesting tidbits are "...computer scientist Dorothy E. Denning..." and mention of the panel that evaluated SKIPJACK. (Isn't Denning a lawyer turned ersatz cryptography expert? Or do I have her confused with some other "expert"?)
