From: padgett@141.240.2.145 (Padgett 0sirius) Date: Fri, 1 Jul 1994 14:27:45 At first look I thought this was going to be a Clipper report. Instead I found 50-odd pages of historical perspective and political background starting with the civil war and followed by 2 1/4 pages of generic questions (and no answers). The only technical equations are on page eight, a description of Diffie-Hellman key exchange. Susan Landau (a research associate professor at the University of Massachusetts) provided some very nice wordsmithing but I really do not know what the rest of the distinguished panel added other than citations. To me, it read more like a legal brief than anything else. It is interesting (particularly the thoughts of the 1928 Supreme Court), just not what I expected. Perhaps this is the introduction and the real meat is yet to come... A. Padgett Peterson, P.E. Cybernetic Psychophysicist We also walk dogs PGP 2.4 Public Key Available
