Ouch... Rather poignant statement... Not sure I'd bite on an offer that slams 
the competition like that. Would seem more appropriate to offer satisfied 
customers as a reference than how bad the other guys are.

As far as competition - how about Trident (I think that's right)... They're made 
up of ex NSA security types. 

But let's give Frank he benefit of the doubt. Since Frank brought it up - what 
are specific success stories of your ex ISO's?
