In this context, it would be style. Bad form would be to say that your worm was bigger. That would be too far. Several reasons.. Not the least of which is you didn't have a worm.
Rather, you had the equivalent of refined plutonium that was not yet weaponized. At one point your company was about to have its sales department pass it out little "yellow cake" baggies as swag. Later, it and Cisco would instead set off the PR equivalent of a dirty bomb. The quest for routers that can withstand nuclear attacks slogs on. Given that ARPANET was designed with that in mind, the whole incident rhymes with this analogy.
(yes that was just a joke, jesus, you people just take everything I say too seriously)
Oh please. No one takes anyone seriously.. I sure as hell hope not, at least not right now, because I can think of many good jokes. All of which might be considered bad taste and/or form.
So what are you going to do with your fame now? Huh?! HUH?! :)
You know you are screwed... There is no living this one down. For PhreakNIC, I think we need to get you a t-shirt that says "Woah, what meeting did I wall into?" on the front, and "I'm not afraid of people I should be" on the back.
Its great to see you've come out of the foxhole. I hope that life doesn't suck excessively for you right now. This was a hurricane strength shit-storm.
no that part about people taking things too seriously, was for the 6 intelligence agencies and the fbi reading my blog...
I'm either in the eye of the shit-storm, or its almost over...things are looking up...
