There's a full-page ad on page A9 of today's Wall Street Journal announcing the winners of the "1995 Chrysler Award of Innovation in Design." One of the six winners is Phil Zimmermann. I quote: "Philip Zimmermann is the designer of Pretty Good Privacy (PGP), an E-mail encryption software. Thanks to the algorithms of PGP, which was released to the public as free software in 1991, E-mail messages can be sent securely all over the world without risk of interception by any third party." In case you're interested: "For the past three years, Chrysler Corporation has been honoring outstanding designers. By showcasing great innovations in fields such as graphic, interactive, product, architectural, and environmental designs, Chrysler strives to bring well-deserved attention to those designers whose common attribute is a passionate commitment to their vision." Among the other winners: the hip graphic design group Reverb and "carceral" architect Frank Gehry. --Dave. -- Dave Mandl dmandl@panix.com http://wfmu.org/~davem
