Weird coincidence with that Quantas flight today re: Dan Geer's email.

Also, has anyone looked into this bug? It's essentially something in the 
floating point instruction set of intel chips you can trigger from Java 
(or C# I assume) to escape the sandbox (write to memory, I assume).

The motto of the week is that you can't hint at bugs or people will just 
find them. Either full disclosure or no-disclosure wins, because there's 
no point doing anything else. :>
