Can Dave be cloned?

Desperately seeking Dave... I need to find one or more smart computer security hackers. People who do research, but have some idea what goes on in the real world. People who write excellent software (especially in Python or Perl) but who are not merely software developers. People who can do software engineering in both the forward and reverse directions. People who can make new discoveries without having their hands held. People who are frighteningly intelligent. People, in short, a lot like Dave (well, the arrogance is optional). Do such people come out of school anymore? Can anyone suggest a good way to look for them? I've found a number of ways (starting with my corporate HR department) to get deluged by piles of resumes for MCSE's and computer rackstackers and Java ("The COBOL of the 21st Century (TM)") programmers, but I can't seem to find any true hackers. It seems like the species is extinct. The degree of difficulty is increased because I'm looking for someone who has to be a US citizen. It seems like a lot (maybe most) of the best work is being done outside the US these days. From what I can tell the brightest US college students aren't interested in computers any longer. Anyone have any suggestions?
