Subject: [iwar] Historical posting

          

 I obtained my copy at " http://csrc.nist.gov/secpubs/hacker.txt
<http://csrc.nist.gov/secpubs/hacker.txt> ".  As I said it is a bit dated,
but I believe it is still generally quite accurate in describing the
psychological make-up of its subject.

In reference to the following view expressed by Leo, Ross:
...
> erstwhile employer understands the psychology of such a person.   Those
> considering hiring such types would do well to read Gordon Meyer's thesis
on
> "The Social Organisation of the Computer Underground".  Though a bit dated
> (1989), this study's assessment of the mind-set of hackers and their ilk
is
> still accurate.

Do you know where we can get a copy? Preferably on-line?
