Shouldn't we be using "Mr. Cordian's" real name? Matt Blaze (mab@research.att.com), also occasionally known as "M.F. Tones", and even less often as "Mr. Rouge" (There should be an accent mark there actually).
In response, Robert Hettinga
Just to clear the air a smidge.
If Matt Blaze says he's looking for an algebraic inverse to DES, I tend to believe him...
Jeeze, Rob! This is your attempt to help "clear the air?"
I do not for a moment believe that Eric Michael Cordian

Um, it's *meat* puppet, Rab, meat puppet...
Or, better, "Bwahahahahahahah!"
Seriously. Like most normal people, I hate saying facially outrageous
things in well-known watering holes and being wrong, but it's particularly
annoying when you're consistantly ambushed by self-appointed, um, holes of
another kind. Vin did this kind of vigorous error correction on me twice
now, on my own turf, in the past three weeks. Not only were both flames
about two standard deviations outside the bounds of altruistic desires to
correct the record, which even *I* can excuse once in a while ;-), this
kind of silly dreck is getting to be a positive habit with Mr. McLellan. I
mean, Socrates was right, and all that, but he was also a pain in the ass.
I fixed my problem with Mr. McLellan this morning, though. Mr. McLellan can
crusade against threats to his world view on someone else's list, I figure.
So, yup, mea fucking culpa. As Frank Lloyd Wright was fond of saying when
he'd been caught in a stretcher, or at least vigorously propounding an
error, "Well. There you are!"
Cheers,

Having met both of them (in the same room yet), not bloody likely. :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Frantz | Macintosh: Didn't do every-| Periwinkle -- Consulting (408)356-8506 | thing right, but did know | 16345 Englewood Ave. frantz@netcom.com | the century would end. | Los Gatos, CA 95032, USA

Ye gods, Robert, what'd you do to Vin, told TRW the facts of his Ponzi, sent his name to the IRS assassin bot with e-$3, broadcast his secret key, revealed his criminal nyms, told his deadbeat kids where he really hides, scrambled his biometrics so he'd never access offshore stashes, crayoned his sweetie's moniker, skills and number on John Glenn's overalls, or merely plonked, readied, aimed as is the privilege of demigodish ganglia atwitching.

Bwahahahahah! (Or something like it, anyway...)
Nope. Nothing *that* serious. Something completely childish. He probably
won't even notice. ;-).
