Yeah, the advantage is, if they think they've found it, they might just stop looking much further. It's a chance that might save your ass. -gg

Wouldn't it be possible to encrypt the plaintext with DES and then when some TLA tells you to hand over they key tell them that it's an OTP and give them an OTP which produces an innocuous plaintext? Then you don't have to worry about key storage, right? (Because DES-keys are hashed from strings [right?] which can be kept in human memory.) -- | Sameer Parekh-zane@genesis.MCS.COM-PFA related mail to pfa@genesis.MCS.COM | | Apprentice Philosopher, Writer, Physicist, Healer, Programmer, Lover, more | | "Symbiosis is Good" - Me_"Specialization is for Insects" - R.
