At lunch today... by jmaxsohmer 2005-02-28 20:46:28
One of my fellow Software Engineers and two business majors were discussion the process of hacking into the Pentagon's databanks and stealing codes and why it was scary that cyberterrorists really could do that.

We mentioned how easy it (theoretically) is to dial into their modems...

We also mentioned that it would be really hard to hack the system and steal the codes and that even if you did you'd have an FBI helicoptor parked in your driveway within 15 minutes.

They got very confused. They didn't seem to understand the difference between "dialing into the modem pool" and "hacking the systems".

I almost busted a gut laughing!
