IMHO almost anyone could Morse significantly faster then using one of those stupid phone keypads. Its been forever since I've operated CW, but I'm still fairly quick at it.
-KB3EEE (Yeah, yeah, I need to get around to upgrading my license. To be honest, its been forever since I've operated *at all* since my college got annoyed when I started trying to hang antennas all over their buildings when I first moved in 4 years ago... Just a few more semesters!)
Actually, i doubt the email protocols are going to change much in the near future. Its worked pretty well for what, 10, 15 years now? more?
PGP signing will probably become much more common (as it should, and i'm astonished it hasnt already) but thats all i really see in the future.
Maybe i'll make some sort of webmail that enforces pgp signed messages, and uses some seriously hard encryption. That'd be pretty nifty. I don't like how easy it is to snoop my email.
Someone in my family blew the whistle on a government contractor she was working for, and went through the government and company channels. She got canned for her trouble. The wrongful dismissal suit settlement was pretty nice, but in the end nothing got changed.
