I saw a link to this in Schneier's latest Crypto-Gram newsletter, and it made me laugh. It's a beautiful visual representation of why security needs to think about the "weakest link" principle.

Hehe, There are places on GT campus to do this.

I'm very pleased to see Stank presenting disposable email system. It is an needed service, and a cool idea.

I will not be at Interz0ne, because I am attending the O'Reilly Emerging Technology conference (See earlier meme http://www.memestreams.net/users/acidus/blogid4810557), which is Monday - Thursday immediately after Interz0ne. I will not be at Interz0ne, because I need to use that time to do a weeks worth of group work. However my evenings are free and there a lots of folks I walk to see like Stank, Strick, and Virgil.

I am antsy about Iran's quest for nuclear materials, but I believe the country will collapse before they get a bomb. However, Bush's actions are certainly freaking me out. We haven't had a president involved in 2 wars since Truman

How to add/modify/remove buzzcard accounts from building access. The system name is Continuum. I was mistaken, when I didn't call it in an article that does not exits, Osiris.

Ran across this page while trying to figure out the prefix used by GATECH Buzzcards for Stripe Snoop. I never knew the "60177000" number was called a "Site ID."

IATA documentation is *very* boring. Anyway, Boarding Passes and Plane Tickets are now supported by SS 2.0. Grab the CVS tree from sf.net if you want.

The initial issue of Make launches in March, but supposedly is available in the bay area now. I'm rushing to get SS 2.0 out, it will most likely be out this weekend.

Another Stripe Snoop 2.0 Screenshot, release imminent

I've been looking for something like this for months. Its the standard defining the layout of the 4 (yes 4) tracks used in all Automatic Ticketinng and Boarding passing, by the IATA. Sadly this one is for Sailing and Train travel, but they document states the format closely models airline tickets. 3:30am is much too early to parse so terse a standard
