RE: I love the smell of whining in the morning...

I do agree with Eric, that NSS is one of, or even, the best independent entity
that both customers and vendors can trust.

NSS has a extraordinary team to perform all the real world threats we find in
the real world. Blaming the result is the same of saying: "I trusted NSS once,
but now, when I am not in good shape, I don't trust them anymore."

PS: BTW, I've worked with Eric in his previous live @ ISS and IBM. =)
