From what I understand, the electrical signals interfere with each other, causing a peak in the signal ahead of where the signal itself is? Or something like that?
But isn't that interference radio waves, and don't radio waves travel at the speed of light? So how does it end up going faster? I'm confused...
And where do you get an oscilloscope (sp?) that can measure into the billions km/hr for less than $500?
I'm sure a lot of/. readers have read Singh's (sp?) book about cryptography, and quantum cryptography is coming along faster than quantum computing. The first quantum crypto message was sent about 6-7 years ago across about 2 feet, and I think someone had it up to 5 km in the air a couple years ago. Shouldn't be too long (before quantum computing) that there'll be wires running everywhere for this type of data transfer (or just send it via airwaves)

I would think having a several ton car fall on your head would hurt...
but maybe thats just me...
Yeah I think you mean 42 sheesh

One-time pads are not theoretically unbreakable, they are completely unbreakable (as long as you use numbers 1-26 not 1-10)
