Wow! Terry, then CNN, now Harvey! Well, I better stop commenting
on it, to maintain a shred of dignity. But how in the helllll could
*hackers*
pull off such a thing? How would they know how to manage all the
systems, just to keep the transmitter pointed to the receiver is quite
a trick. Surely there is something we are not being told. This really
