   Two clarifications of the post by Frank Willoughby on the
   TCP/IP attack described in Jonathan's Littman new book:

   1. The material posted is directly from Littman's book, not
      my paraphrase.

   2. The attacker has not been proven to be Mitnick, only
      alleged. Whether it was Mitnick is a principal question
      of Littman's book.
