'Security' can cover many angles. Perhaps, an air force would like to hide their true limitations, or perhaps in another situation, might wish to hide latest advances.

We in the UK have a wholey different and more cunning tack: By letting any swinging d#^k have accesss to endless lists of personal details, from all forms of life, we swamp the 'hun', making it impossible to sift good data from bad.

Just to be doubley sure that not a squeak of sercrecy is disturbed, we play the same trick on our own people with JPA or any 'Open' Gov website, which has pretty much replaced all the post offices. At least for those with internet.

So, rest assured, your secret's safe with us!

Right, I'm off to look at new cars... now where's that laptop, and mustn't forget the 450Gb portable, un-emcrypted herd drive thingy. Someone partially bent the USB plug, so unless you know how to get it in, you've no chance! (Ooh Err)

Bahhhhhhhhrrrrrrrrrrrr
