Any chance this is by the Chinese? Though there would be oportunities to sell any valuable data to foriegn governments if successful. Good job that they were on the ball, though maybe decent cyber security is a pre requisite of the Pentagon?

Not in any meaningful way, no, don't be silly. You're paranoid, that's your problem...

Who's been talking to you? Tell me! I know you've been listening. Must get out of here. Get the industrial magnets to wipe the data. There onto us, me, I mean me...

Commands for when the super-rozzers turn up:
Mac & Linux: wipe /surge --amps=30 -alldisks -all /now
Windows: L CTRL + L SHIFT + L ALT + L Winkey + R CTRL + R SHIFT + R ALT + R Winkey + P, Type "rm -all -force-all", select "Now", enter password, click "yes", click "OK", select highest current available, click "OK", press "W", click "Yes". If it crashes, reboot and try again.

Does that work? I have to reinstall soon, tempted to try it out before hand if it does.

That's no good at all. I can't have everyone on the Internet knowing if I've got central heating or not.

I know! They now know how many bugs they need after we told them the number of rooms we have. I know it's efficient and cost saving knowing that beforehand but still...

I think we need a sardonic smiley. Or possibly a [/sardonic] tag.
