Adrian Lamo proved the homeless can hack it in cyberspace too. Lamo is the guy who got into "The New York Times'" intranet and accessed the telephone and social security numbers of the rich and famous (Robert Redford and Rush Limbaugh to name two of thousands). He's also gotten into Excite@Home, WorldCom and Yahoo using little more than a public computer and an Internet connection. Pretty impressive for a guy who spends many of his nights in abandoned buildings or on friends' couches. Lamo may be getting a permanent address soon -- in jail. The paper may press charges.
