HACKING: MARK OF GENIUS OR PLAIN THEFT?
By Jeffry Beeler
ComputerWorld West Coast Bureau
"... They call themselves `hackers.'"
Thus ComputerWorld, alledged "newsweekly for the computer community"
joined the media word-stomp. A mark of stupidity or just plain ignorance?
<flame on>
Jeffry must be one of those folks who studied journalism in school instead
of studying the subject about which he intended to report. With this kind
of help, hackers-of-the-first-kind better find themselves a new monicker.

If you'd like to vent a little spleen on this guy, his bureau chief, and
perhaps the home office:
