Daniel,
During a year in this penitentiary, here's five I heard the
older cons mutter:
1. "Applied Cryptography," Second edition just out, Bruce
Schneier, Wiley, 1996. Flip through it and stare in
disbelief and awe. Enjoy 2-5 and return, anxious.
2. "The Codebreakers," David Kahn, Macmillan, 1967. Crypto-
biblical tales of lying and cheating via momentarily secret
tricks. Continued in 3.
3. "Cyphernomicon," Tim May et al, 1006-Far Future. A wad
of inspiring sci-non-fi of miscreating, eluding hard-bars
and regaling in off-shore soft-bars. Also, C4.
4. "Cypherpunks archives," All Wholesomes, <www.hks.net>,
Infinite. The stingers honey pot for luring beekeepers into
berzerk swarms. Wear 5 for protection.
5. "PGP." Download it somewhere somewhat legally while you
can, practice picking this sitar. And heave some brick-
bucks at benefactor Phil for malefactor dues.
