Bond Good afternoon Q, what have you got for me today?

Q Ok pay attention Bond there have been some developments in secret codes since you last came through. I'd like to tell you about our latest wheeze for getting messages back to HQ by e-mailing pictures of Anna Kournikova.

Bond You mean the tennis player named after an Internet virus?

Q The very same. What you need to do is put your message into a very small dot, a micro dot in fact . .

Bond And stick the dot onto a Kournikova photo?

Q Exactly.

Q Ah well they used to call themselves the Cult of the Dead Cow but its really a SMERSH front

Bond I see . . . . . .
