Re: Chaos harnessed for encryption / Fluctuations and Order research

See Scientific American, August 1993
        Mastering Chaos, p78-84.
        The Amateur Scientist, Circuits that get chaos in sync, p120-122.
        
        The remotely synch'd dual nonlinear systems is written up by guys  
from the Naval Research Lab and Georgia Institute of Technology, and was  
reportedly discovered there, not at MIT. 

        According to the article, Louis Pecora (NRL) discovered how to build  
chaotic systems in synchronous parts; Thomas Carrol (also NRL) built the  
first circuit in 1989, and realized that it could be used for encryption.
