Okay, I can't help but think that somehow I've done something entirely wrong in my life to find myself _agreeing_ with the Feds about something, but then, this is actually a pretty clear issue for me... It's got sane, reasonable people who know what a serious risk allowing physical access to network media is on one side, and then tree hugging hippies who think that if they can buy something in a store it can't possibly be misused or it wouldn't be for sale.

Tip of the Day: Bleach and Ammonia, two common cleaning compounds available at every Safeway and corner store, can be mixed to produce _copious quantities_ of _mustard gas_.

Unless he was misquoted, the "Missing the Point" Award in this article goes to Sky Dayton for "It's possible to secure a wireless network today, [...] But it needs to get easier." Hello? They need to be sold pre-configured in a belligerently secure mode, because we know quite well that John and Mary Websurfer won't do _anything_ to secure them.
