The L.D. persona...
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Dave Womack asked,
The other day, I noticed that MacPGP seemed to give credit to a person with the initials L. D.
In the MacPGP2.3 startup screen there appears "... L. Detweiler....". He adapted John Norstad's help routine for use in MacPGP. This was a vast improvement over the documentation that came with MacPGP2.2. You still need my "Here's How to MacPGP!" guide though ;-). He also wrote the "Privacy and Anonymity on the Internet" FAQ, which is still regularly posted to Usenet, and mentioned at the end of my Guide, and is highly recommended reading. Then he went koo-koo. Oh well. I'm sure the old timers here know more about that than I do. -=Xenon=- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.3 iQCVAgUBLWLBCQSzG6zrQn1RAQE+iwP+NjFViFSGS2LppEVeUjDnQE1/0G/NWwxw wFeLj0gYidkFtrUd37VUD0Xpvu4uWnzSEjr28QH7ycF5Zhw2rtirVb7tNaM2NeX7 vX0i8Eg3VsN3zoApm0Zdgo2dGZmxO4PES5OW4Kc33+CSjMf78L4n6D9wQX7SPc/M znS73lmdKxk= =QQrZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Frankly, I think it sucks -- said so long before he went nuts. Its full of factual errors (my favorite howler being that the US-Australia link is "only" 500 megabytes a second in bandwidth), strange constructions, and other junk. I also recall that I had several fights with him early on because of his panic stricken howls of how "we" have to do X and "we" have to do Y, as if there was a "we" here rather than a mailing list. Can't say that I *ever* liked Mr. Detweiler. Perry
