"makes a nearly identical blunder' all over again"

It's not a "blunder" - he's figured out he can get paid for conferences and keep himself in the spotlight by doing this sort of thing.

Bottom line: He's a fraud.

Sad thing is, a lot of people are prepared to believe him and pay to listen to him. And the planet could be wrecked because of people like him.

So all the NSA needs to do is kidnap your chip, microscopically re-dope it, and shove it back in your computer without you noticing!

They could have a batch of compromised chips and replace the one in your computer.

They lied about posting stuff which didn't turn up; cards appeared at my door saying `you were out` when I was not out etc.

FEDEX does that too.

You know their promise about how if it's one second late they refund the money? What really happens is that a message appears on their computer that "they called but you were out" then they give you the runaround on the phone until you get tired of calling them.
