Well, I explained in a response to the mail you sent, but since you
seem to want the whole network to know how ridiculous you are, how about
the fact that you judge the intelligence of people by the state in which
they happen to be attending college, or the fact that you make sweeping
statements about what some one knows about security, without having any
background information on the person you are judging.

Your responses to this network could be beneficial if you would quit
acting like an "Obnoxious Math Grad Student", and more like a 
responsible adult.

(Flame on)
What does a math grad student know about computers, anyway!  You probably
still carry around a slide rule.  That's why you don't care about the
effects of the worm, you know that you'll never have to worry about a
worm invading your slide rule.  I get it now...

You little shits wouldn't know a slide rule if you stumbled over one.

Ask a Hoosier to discuss the points that he claimed were "ridiculous"
and "invalid", and he talks about something else.

Yup.  Indiana is getting a 1988 Maroney Award nomination.
