I may be reading too much into this, but just wanted to clarify that when I
said "partially a product of my own twisted experiments" below, I wasn't
asking for acknowledgement or credit in any way.
I just didn't want you to interpret the following clause ("an abomination")
as an attack on yourself or your Cloak utility (which is actually super
cool), so I figured I'd step in front of the "grenade" (which was in turn
a backup plan in case if the tongue-in-cheek nature of the message didn't
come across correctly...).
But in general, maybe I worry too much about this stuff. It's just so hard
to ensure one does not give offense via email...
Anyway, by the same token, you never need to worry about crediting (or not)
me for anything. I'm not sensitive to attribution and don't care about
credit so much (I'm just careful to credit others as best as I can,
because you never know who *does* care about it).

Indeed, as I wrote ( in
http://www.jsoftware.com/pipermail/programming/2014-March/035930.html ) :
"The
door is the one you opened and I entered though the doorway." I meant to
add "Thank you very much!" but it did not make it; yet, it is better later
than never (often I think to fast and write too slow).
At least until we [we?] change the DoJ to permit it. No, I am afraid that
the forces of evil will never be allowed to go that far. My soul is already
lost anyway; I cannot stop using black magic now... It is so enticingly
powerful!
