Thanks. I've watched about ten minutes of it so far and it really is interesting to watch. I haven't done grep in ten years! I can't even remember how to get to the dos prompt. Tomorrows I'll finish it.

I knew many hackers and crackers and would always ask the hows and whys. Very few gave information so I could hack or crack but I picked up bits and pieces.

I once challenged a kid who claimed he could take out an ISP. Within an hour, the Eastern states' AT&T network was down. ABC News announcement about the outage left me in awe. I knew a group he was part of may have done it but her hack into other sites to show me he could. AlL that talent used the wrong way.

I knew phreakers when living in Cambridge . I had free long-distance service for a long time. Then guilt took over and I never did it again.

It just fascinated me when people did this on their own, just by sheer determination to learn.
