Subject: RE: BS: Pentagon hacker nearly safe?
So Silas you are alleging that he hacked the launch codes for the Nuclear weapons and chose not to use them because of his sense of Patriotism to the US? If that were the case, then Hacky McHacker should get a ticker tape parade down Broadway. Or at least a night in the Alps with a Bond girl. I guess you thought the movies "War Games" was a documentary?
Me, I'm pretty confident that The US military has many more than one computer system and that the ones that actually launch deadly weapons, not only are much more secure, but have actual live soldiers to decide whether or not to fire the weapons.
