Fort N.O.C.'s Security in Obscurity

penciling_in writes "Brock N. Meeks of MSNBC reports on his recent visit to VeriSign's secret location: 'The unassuming building that houses the "A" root sits in a cluster of three others; the architecture looks as if it were lifted directly from a free clip art library. No signs or markers give a hint that the Internet's most precious computer is inside humming happily away in a hermetically sealed room. This building complex could be any of a 100,000 mini office parks littering middle class America.' The report goes on to say: 'Access to the Network Operations Center, the "NORAD" of the Internet's traffic monitoring, requires the electronic badge and then a double biometric hand print scan.' And here are Karl Auerbach and Robert Alberti offering their interesting analysis of this report on CircleID."

Did anyone else notice that the byline is designed to obscure the true identity of the author? Here is the byline:

By Brock N. Meeks
Cheif Washington correspondent
MSNBC

Its hard to work out this puzzle, because the truth is well-hidden, but I think I've cracked it. I'm willing to bet that this was written by MSNBC's Chief Washington correspondent.

When bylines have typos, I'm pretty sure its a sign that the republic is falling ...
