Comment Carl Grimmer's Official Response (Score 1) 499
Greetings and Salutations, SlashDotters!
Carl, the 8th grader in question, is my son. I am the guilty father that taught my kid the nasty hacking skills of reading HELP at a command prompt in Windows. Anyway, I helped Carl write the full story for everything that happened. We posted it on our website, and we'll keep it updated with new links and any other news that comes up because of it.
Just so you know, we understand that this is not news because Carl did something cool. It's really just because the school did something stupid. My son was simply experimenting with DOS commands in class. But for the whole story, click on the command that Carl should never have typed:
NET SEND * HEY!
