  1. Re:wow on UK Home Office Set To Scrap National ID Cards · · Score: 1

    The technique being applied is that of RNA interference (RNAi) which was awarded the Nobel prize in 2006. There's a good layman's introduction to it over at PBS.

    Interestingly there appears to be a hidden message within the key itself, the start obviously encodes: fidelIty bravERy InTEgRITY, but not sure what the rest works out to (chkopsuwm).

    I noticed there was a similar pattern in the 2007 challenge, with the key (fedralbuoinvstgchrkmpvwxyz) starting off with letters encoding 'federal buro of investigation'.
