That revelation really annoyed the terrorist hacker who had spent the last 3.6 years patiently entering every number - unfortunately he started at 00000001

So you better not use VB?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
I hold an A-7 computer expert classification, Commodore. I'm well acquainted with Dr. Daystrom's theories and discoveries. The basic design of all our ship's computers are JavaScript.

Imagine if each missile had its own user I'd and password...

In the 60's the RAF and USAF had British-based Thor missiles.
The RAF wasn't supposed to launch without USAF personnel turning the key.
Of course, they worked out how to hot wire them.

I guess it means the missiles on American bases in Europe.

I was contemplating buying Eric Schlosser's book Control and Command. I believe he digs into the nuclear arms industry and some of the close shaves they've had.

The book is a thriller for a physics major. We've come so close to annihilating this world. The worst part is that things haven't gotten much better, but no one seems to be worried.

Once you are in front of a nuclear device all systems of control are useless.

Well.. The one that choose that combo was already using 12345 for their luggage, and was smart enough to not re-use passwords across different systems (or at least different system types).
Damn. Now I need to go change my luggage combo.

For the birth of my son, I asked Loungers to send me one issue of their newspaper. I got ... one answer, but a great one, from that part of the planet where people are living upside down.
So many thanks to Damian[^], who sent me a piece of his local news from the 7th of October. When my son writes his first K>> lines (This is going to be the new fashion programming language in 2028), I will show him that newspaper and tell him: look, this was sent to me because programmers are great people!
And in case you wonder about the date, yes, for obscure reasons, this letter took aaaages to reach my letterbox.

I didn't see your original post, so all the best to all of you...
I was able to get a PDF copy of one of the newspapers of the 7th of October. It's in hebrew and about 25 MB, so you have to decide...
(I have no real copies of real newspaper as I do not read them.)
By the way do you know that the Benjamin (in the bible) is the only son of Jacob that named by the father? His names - by all the variations - has the meaning of son-of-my-strength... 
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

I remember the post - but I'm just too damned lazy to send of a newspaper even if I had one for the right date.
I have some newspapers from the day I was born; nothing much happened. They are less memorable to me than the newspapers from the day men landed on the moon, which I also have.

My pleasure... glad it reached there!! I think it went via Antarctica, or perhaps the sun.
I was just discussing with my wife last night that I hadn't heard anything about whether it had arrived or not... Any idea why it took so long? Did I transcribe the address correctly???
