Speaking of dragged and so forth, I wonder which country the twits behind
the recent hacking of the RSA site (http://www.rsa.com/ - still there now)
reside in, and how long before they get done.

And to make this vaguely operational, this was noticed at 7pm GMT+1000
last night, and the listed contacts notified at that time by email.  Its
times like this that having after-hours contacts listed seems like a
bloody good idea.

( Called the Australian office this morning, apparently hot on the heels
  of someone from Denmark doing the same thing.  Hopefully they've got a/h
  numbers for the US side of their operation)

Bruce.

I speak for myself.
