...is to store encrypted communication streams for brute force decryption over time. Scoop up all encoded communications for a person/group of interest, brute force one message-- voila! all collected communications become readable. Retire and rotate your keys periodically.
Except that it does. Unless..... we use giant nuclear-powered mining equipment, nuclear-powered ore transport, nuclear-powered chemical production to supply the nuclear-powered fuel processing and refinement, and nuclear-powered fuel remediation. It could work.
huh, your comment and handle fit the profile of a friend that dj'ed on the side... enjoy the sun and amoeba music-- beantown's got the music but not enough of the other.
Yeah, except in reality the amount of fossil fuels used to mine, refine, and process the fissile materials create just as many if not more emissions than any internal emission process-- plus we get all the benefits of longlived, highly concentrated, deadly poisonous waste products! Ain't progress beautiful...While solar, wind and tidal power are "at the mercy of nature" at least they are renewable, truly clean, and not at the mercy of terrorists.

The unaltered 'band-gap' crystal structure traps some quantum energy states and lets others pass through. When a shockwave meets the crystal, the traversing wave is momentarily 'held-up' if the shockwave is travelling in the opposite direction or 'hastened' if the shockwave is travelling in the same direction, thereby compressing or stretching the frequency. Since 'band-gap' crystals apply to all waves and not just photonic, this same method can be applied to sound and heat waves as well. Check this excellent Wired article for more. This whole field is really elegant.
Consider starting them with the gui to make them comfortable, then introducing them to the cli after. Nothing grabs a kid's interest like letting them 'peek' under the hood. The subversive ones will stick with it while the others will switch back. Let them find their own comfort level. And provide snacks-- snacks are good.
This scheme can't realistically be faked before time at your leisure, either by reverse-engineering a smart card circuit or by crunching for algorithms. If, by protocol attack, you mean intercepting and substituting communication after authentication, good luck trying to do that at an ATM today using existing authentication. Physical theft is the only choice. Otherwise, I agree that's it useless for unsecured transmission, but I don't think that's their intent-- only point of sale using secured readers.

right on-- hey edalytical, do you happen to live in the boston area?
