RE: incidents from history

["Dario Ciccarone (dciccaro)" <dciccaro () cisco com>]

Never heard of that one. Sounds great for a movie plot, though - it has computers, the MIT, the military, terrorists. 
You just need to add some romance, guns and a couple mentions to the economy and will touch on every issue that's on 
the front page of all papers in the world these days ;)

Another classic would be Mitnick vs Shimomura - http://www.gulker.com/ra/hack/tsattack.html
