I hoped, HOPED, this story would end with a link to YouTube where a man in a trenchcoat performs a strange dance while lip-syncing to very concerning lyrics about a man that would never give her up, never let her down...
Yes, I earned the downvotes, have at it.
Anyway this made me want to read Cryptonomicon for the 5th time and gift it to some younguns.
Hehe... wish I had a link for you, I went digging around the internet with some serious Google fu and didn't turn up much. The MIT guys were l0pht, but I couldn't find any stories linked to them.
The original story was in a 200 ish page library book I rented in 2004 or so, and I imagine the publishing of that book was in the early to mid 90s based on the tech and artwork involved :) It was at Half Hollow Hills public library, which has since been demolished!
