   id1: Off (aborted)

   id2: Fear not, friend Robin!  I shall rout the Sheriff

Gotta love hackers with humour.

Overall a very pleasant read. I'm certainly going to check out the bibliography presented, and I'd like to read more along this line. I deeply enjoyed "The Nerd Handbook" as well. Could anyone recommend other readings in the fashion of those two?
