Furthermore, George, if you can do that (without cracking Richard's 
machine and guessing his pass phrase), I'm sure that you will make the 
New York Times and the front page of USA Today.  It would be major news 
to the cryptographic community.  You would probably attract, through 
indirect publicity, major funding for WKPP.  It would be well worth it 
for your cave diving cause.

And, of course, your failure to do it will reflect negatively on the 
whole hogarthian style and everyone who does not butt mount their light. :-)

Here, I think, you are beyond your depth and knowledge, George.  Yet you 
spoke as authoritatively about it as you do your cave diving topics.  Was 
it a forged post?  Or are you simply an expert about everything you know 
nothing about?
