*****
This book was originally released in hardcover by Random House in 1992.
I feel that I should do the community a service and release the book in the medium it should have been first released in... I hope you enjoy the book as much as I did..It provides a fairly complete account of just about everything.....From motherfuckers, to Gail 'The Bitch' Thackeray.....
Greets to all,
Golden Hacker / 1993
Death Incarnate / 1993

Golden Hacker and Death Incarnate were to lazy to do anything more than to put the book on a scanner and run an OCR on what it produced. There were however several small errors in the text - obviously result of OCRing it and not reading afterwards. I corrected most of them while reading the book from the screen. It is really worth reading - altough it shows hacker community from lamers point of view. Maybe someone will make TeX file of that, I'm too lazy, as I already read it <grin>

P.S. Steve Jackson won his case against SS and they will have to pay for their ignorance during witch hunts...
