Gene Spafford and Cliff Stohl, together with Renee Montaine and Robert
Segal (spelling subject to random drug testing, ordering subject to the
whimsy of the script) talked viruses last night on NPR. A humorous and
remarkably accurate (for a popular presentation) description of the worm
was aired, and a call for moderation was made.

Congratulations... now if you can only get CBS to air it...

(Voice over... "Hello MIT", "Hello, please log in", "No thanks, I'd just
like a list of machines you talk to", "OK, there's Berkeley...", "Thanks,
SUCKER"... (dialing sounds) "Hello, Berkeley", "Hello, please log in", "No
thanks, I'd just like to send some mail", "OK, where to?", "DEBUG"...
(dramatic chord, evil laughter, etc...))

Damn, I wish I'd got that on tape.
