From: Dave Horsfall <d...@horsfall.org> Ralph Merkle, co-inventor of public key crypto, was born today in 1952. Do you buy things online, with your credit card? Then you can thank Ralph Merkle for making it reasonably safe; he also invented crypto hashing.
(Notice that I said "reasonably" safe; it's always a risk.) -- Dave Horsfall DTM (VK2KFU) "Those who don't understand security will suffer."
