Re: but..
I read that shortly after it came out...neat book. I was still getting my e-mail through Telnet at the time. Stoll's original career was that of astronomy, which makes the story even more interesting. Most of his "hacking" knowledge is self-taught.

You mean self-learned? You can't teach yourself but you can learn yourself??? That's like saying Me eat potato, Me like you when ya twisting words around that is bad grammar IMHO. |

Is there something in the water today that people are scrutinizing my 4 sentence post? (flattering though it is.  )
Like I say to everyone in a similar snit, if you want to start a flame war, knock yourself out. I'll be somewhere else.  It's a nice day out, I think I'll catch some non-LCD rays. Ciao.

Dude, you need to chill and stop being anal retentive about what is being written, try to focus on what is being said. It looks like you need some self awareness. Lol, self learned, that has to be the stupidest term for teaching yourself something. Go back to grammar school. It is used, it is correct, and it makes sense so go back to your circle jerk. |
