Hmm, just as a side note, isn't Bob Morris' father _the_ rather famous Morris who has done quite a bit of computer security work (perhaps NSA?). I've heard of stupider things -- the bombing of Laos & Cambodia... Will we see new books in the coming years 'ARPAgate: Ollie North cleans up those lax University bozos...' :-) -- Paul Traina To believe that what is true for {uunet|pyramid}!comdesign!pst you in your private heart is true pst@cdi.com for all men, that is genius.
