       @SteveBellovin Steve, I'm reading your slides, and I'm thinking you need to write a memoir!

       @jvagle I am writing one, but it's a personal one for my family, not for the public—I doubt that anyone is interested in my childhood beyond what I shared today. I mean, does anyone here care that there was at least one house on block with a coal furnace, in the 1950s? The slides do have a link to an interview in ;login: a few years ago; very soon, there will also be an oral history interview with me available.

       @SteveBellovin Your slides are a near-exact image of my interests and what brought me to switch from math grad studies to a JD. Only you were *inventing* the technologies I was interested in!

       @SteveBellovin I'm reminded of a time in the mid-90s, when I was just out of the USMC and returning to school. I was hanging out in Jeff Schiller's lab at MIT where he described RSA (recall the sqeamish ossifrage?) and this new thing called PGP, and I was hooked.
