  1. Re:I'm getting skeptical here... on PBS To Air Six New Monty Python Specials · · Score: 1

    "We see success from modern-day comedy troupes, such as Saturday Night Live"

    And that statement ruins your 'argument'...you only just saw The Meaning of Life and you didn't get it, therefore everything since that is slightly more modern is funnier...no wonder Friends ran for so long with such comic genius like you around.

  4. This reminds me of... on Crack A "Numbers" Station · · Score: 1

    Station X, yes they did have a little more to go on and a little more insight into the inner workings of the algorithm, but until the latter stages of the war they didn't have anything remotely like a computer, however pen and pencil and a few mental gymnastics started to break through. Given enough messages, the occurance of errors, lazy people using repeats etc. it would be possible to break into this code. However, I would not like to guess how many messages would be required. But with the very nature of a widespread network with many people requiring access into it, it fundamentally weakens the security of the overall algorithm (people are always the weakest link).

    Of course, what's not been said is that these are just credit-card numbers captured from various websites.
