It's a really good read, particularly for those who might not have lived
through the crypto-wars.  The history of DES key size that SMB writes about
is fascinating, and that part preceeds me.  I didn't know that clipper got
shipped in that phone...  I think that the situation around 40bit-RC4 is
instructive for anyone that wasn't there too.
