Committee on Governmental Affairs starring senator and actor Fred Thompson.

“This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it.” - Admiral Josh Painter (Fred Thompson) The Hunt For Red October

L0pht is the conglomerate Uncle Rico of hacking. Give it a rest.

What does this mean? I don't get it.

Perhaps a reference to the BS-filled character in Napoleon Dynamite.

It's a great story with many lessons in government over-reach and freedom. Keep repeating these Uncle Rico stories because future generations need to know what was at stake.
