Ok... sorry. I retract my last post :) Oops... the internet is forever.

I don't know about the others on the list, but I am a tad tired of this and other rounds of sniping between Mr. Johnson and Mr. Mills. I would sincerely appreciate it if both of you would tone it down by an order of magnitude or more, or even better take this particular line of discussion offline. Responding angrily on any topic doesn't enlighten anyone. It may be therapeutic but it is not appropriate. I am certainly not a "list dominator" and I appreciate the technical discussions on this list including those contributed to by both of these gentlemen, and have been given (and occasionally have myself given) good advice on the practice of our profession. I would really like that tradition to continue. +1 on Tom Brennan's request to keep politics out of our exchanges. There are plenty of other places for discussion or comments on those topics.

I love when the IBM experts corrects one of you. On Thursday, October 7, 2021, 6:01 PM, Charles Mills <charl...@mcn.org> wrote: Exactly, and "that was not a real hack" would not get your data back.

If I was hacking a mainframe I wouldn't start with the mainframe, I'd start with the sysprog or security admin's PC or Mac or email or phone or whatever. In that case it doesn't matter one bit how well the mainframe is protected internally. And please stop with the political remarks. This seems to be the one place on earth I can go without reading about politics. A place where I can enjoy a 50+ post back-and-forth between Seymour and Gil, for example, without hearing one word about US politics. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
