Nobody in these programs actually uses the term 'black projects.' The term 'black' refers to the type of funding and oversight, not the project itself. <BR/><BR/>On the other hand, I'm intrigued, and I ordered a copy of the book from the Amazon last night - just for the giggle factor and to see if any of the programs I was involved in are included.

Much more likely scenario is some smart-ass miltary type saying "wouldn't it be funny if we made fake patches?"Anne C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09444051201220766948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243351006478134285.post-85102409478245647542008-03-06T21:10:00.000-06:002008-03-06T21:10:00.000-06:00I rarely get trolls on my site.

(Plenty of searches for that naked chick Jim put in my comments though... ;)<BR/><BR/>On the Linux Journal site, however, comments often go downhill quickly. It can be quite the unfriendly place. I think that's largely due to ability for users to remain anonymous.

Well, ok, a little comment. This guy is reading into things just a bit here. He's a little off base on a few of these patches, and way the hell off on others. Some of these are just jokes, and the one with the aircraft (goat sucker) is an A-6, not an A-7. Goat sucker, BTW, is the english term for Chupacabra (the goat sucker, who comes in the night and kills you - do the math). And if he really wanted to analyze symbols associated with black projects, he'd look at contractor coffee mugs, just saying.<BR/><BR/>And speaking of symbols, wait until my next post. I get mail, some of it is, uh, a little out there.
