Joe Sixpack and his TV
If Mr. & Mrs J. Sixpack seem to know zilch at present about strong or any other other kind of crypto, would it maybe, possibly have to do with a lack of exposure to it on the soap operas of their favorite media, ie TV? Hmmm. The general level of paranoia on X-Files (100 milion viewers all over the world, rabid internet following) is even higher than on this list, and the usual discussions on this list would read like a free vacation to their scriptwriters and researchers. Anyone have any scriptwriting skills? 100 million potential subscribers to toad are stake... (Yes I guess then we'd have to move to usenet distribution. But think how entertaining our flames wars would become. Yes I'm definitely calling for it, and the big house with the hot tub would be nice too. Only half joking. Honestly though, anyone want to find out their email addreses and send out a gratis subscription to toad? A script would be nice too. It's better exposure than five seconds of Tim with Connie Chung.)

As I understand it shows like "The X-Files" don't accept unsolicited scripts. Not surprising as I'm sure they have writer's agreements. --- "In fact, had Bancroft not existed, potestas scientiae in usu est Franklin might have had to invent him." in nihilum nil posse reverti 00B9289C28DC0E55 E16D5378B81E1C96 - Finger for Current Key Information

Nobody accepts unsolicited scripts for legal reasons. The real question is, do they accept outside scripts? Some shows do; some shows don't. IF they do, they will send freelance writers a show "bible," which is a writer's guide to the basic rules concerning the structure, history, characters, etc. of the show. If you're interested, you should drop them a note asking in they accept scripts from outsiders. Giving the production offices a call would let you know what their attitude is about submissions.
