"Oh and JCL ....did a lot of that and setting up benchmarks with TSO/ SPF!!!"
I remember us sharing our various backgrounds some time back. I do remember you worked with various language systems on IBM mainframes etc..
Yea this stuff is a nice diversion. One can write code that one then can see in these first shooter games. I am becoming a bit adapt at keeping my eyes glued as where my squad is positioned in order for them to take advantage of cover points, e.g some chunk of fallen building laying on a road, and not lined up so that when I as for cover fire at some point, they don't try to blast me in the back if I am sqatting in front of them etc..
In some of the maps (the stuff that the player actually sees, walks on etc., in the game, one finds enemy groups being spawned into the game under various conditions. So one is never sure what buildings, cover, angles areas they will come at you or take up a sniper position for instance. So I have to control my squad accordingly to keep their danger level low as well as attempting to take out a often determined enemy.
At any rate, it has been a great diversion. I also can hop in a say a F16 and fly anywhere around the world from and to the many airbases I had established in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2001. Plus do carrier ops, e.g. catapult and wire landings on positioned carriers, in the Persian Gulf, of Vietnam, of China, east/west coast USA, south America and Med. So life is never boring. It is great being a 59 year old kid again!

I suspect this is why the Libby trial has been moved until after the 06 elections. There's going to be a lot of dirt uncovered in that trial which, may be used for future prosecution.

For their part, the Japanese either never got wind of the story circulating in the United States or were so convinced that their naval codes were unbreakable that they dismissed its significance.

The japs knew of the story, but didn't believe it. Charging such a visible paper would have made the japs much more willing to believe the story and change their codes so it was decided not to charge them. I still think they should have been charged after the war or during the war if and when the jap codes were changed. Japanese stupidity shouldn't have gotten them off the hook. In the current NYT case no one is alleging the terrorists aren't believing their reports.
