edtking@uw-june (Ewan David Tempero) (12/13/84)

Seen in tuesdays Wall Street Journal, an advertisement for Lockheed
equipment that included the sentence

"Today's skillful computer thieves ( or "hackers") can rob your computer
of its most confidential files"

Regardless of what the computing world thinks a hacker is, this how the
*real* world sees them (us?....me:-)
