One imagines that emergency announcements would be accompanied by a) the little "fasten seatbelts" light coming on, b) a sudden change in altitude, and c) fellow passengers clasping their hands and holding their heads in prayer and/or running up and down the aisles, arms up and flailing wildly with a panicked look on their faces, screaming "BLAHLALALALALALA WE'RE ALL GONNA DIEEEEEEE".
I can't hear what they're saying on that intercom half the time anyway.
Once it goes over 1 CD, I guess, Ill move to some other small distro which serves my purpose of emergency repair (like puppy which is what I use now-a-days)
Eh. We already knew all the story, anyway -- except for how Palpatine got his face all messed up. (If they can mention it (not how it happens) on the local talk radio station, I don't think it counts as a spoiler.)
By the way, was I the only one who was half-expecting Vader to rip off his helmet and yell "this helmet is chafing my eyebrows! I swear!"?
[...] but it has come about because there is no compelling reason (that many institutions can see) to devote extra time and effort to coming up with alternate ID schemes for schools.
One wonders if Hinsdale Central High now has a compelling reason.
If on the other hand Grandma doesn't want to travel at the speed of light, if she is on an intersection which you will pass through on your journey you will almost certainly run into her and because of the energy which would be released in the impact the world would probably cease to exist soon after...
Ah, an incredible release of energy in the form of Gramma waves. Hope she's wearing her helmet.

I got bored, so I came up with a couple more ways to do it, but this was the only one-liner I came up with before I lost interest. Compressed, just to make it interesting.
Oh what a whiner. Within time, you can 'undo' anything and hack absolutely everything.
My point was not that "within time, you can intercept radio transmissions", it's that right now, you can.
The whole idea is to make it THAT MUCH MORE difficult to hack. Sending/receiving a SMS for auth for bank transactions sounds pretty damned smart if you ask me.
Yes, making it that much more difficult to hack invariably results in total security. Especially when it's done over radio, which can be intercepted by anyone with half a clue.
I've met more than one person with a modified Radio Shack scanner plugged into a Linux box with software to decode pager messages.
Transmitting private information over publically accessible airwaves is not the answer. It's an interesting approach, but it's not a solution.
Sorry if this sounds hostile, it's not meant to be. I've just been hanging out on a lot of "what's ssh?" forums lately.

Imagine a beowulf cluster of these!
My emergency kit is full of stuff to use if I accidentally eat spam.
1. You can eat it.
2. You probably won't die afterwards.
Most of my system monitoring stuff pages me via SMS. At my old job, I got paged a lot.
Wonder if Martian scientists will one day be looking for signs of prehistoric life on Earth, contemplating terraforming, writing scifi, etc...

DAMN IT!
You owe me a new keyboard!
Which one's the Every key?
Spam. :-)
Oh no, Slashdot goo!
And it's rainbow coloured. Ick.

'sides, I'm loaded.
...Because, as we all know, radio transmissions can't be intercepted...
