Interesting -- my thriller was more: The gubbermint significantly increases, and then starts enforcing the lockdown. The TCRs heroically struggle to break through the barriers and cordons which surround the Culpeper site[0]. This provides many opportunities for "Smokey and the Bandit" style car chases, Anne-Marie Eklund-Löwinder piloting a cigarette boat up the Potomac River, Joao abseiling out of a helicopter, Subramanian doing a HALO jump from a balloon, Frederico (in full camo gear) stalking through the forest while avoiding dogs, and Chuck Norris roundhouse kicking everyone (just because). But, yes, of course mine also has a large, red countdown clock showing the time remaining till the signatures expire and the Internet deletes itself... W [0]: Why is it centered on Culpeper? Because the govmnt heard that the TCRs were coming and planning on blatantly ignoring the lockdown order. This *of course* requires full mobilization of the navy (yay, submarines), airforce (wheee, big planes!!!!), army (tanks and, um,... more tanks?), FBI (oooh! sharp suits and dark glasses), green berets (just like it says on the tin) and CIA (something, something, lasers, something, overthrow foreign governments and install a friendly dictator, self-destructing messages, something.). Oh, and the NSA to quickly factor the new key before it is even generated... Me thinks I may have been spending too much time indoors recently.... > _______________________________________________ > dns-operations mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations -- I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad idea in the first place. This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair of pants. ---maf _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list [email protected] https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations
