Okay, so I was watching this documentary called "The history of Hacking".
http://video.google.com/videoplay?d...vSLqUEZjiiQLn1LT8DA&q=The+History+of+Hacking+
It starts out by explaining the origins of hacking, which involved tapping into the phone systems at the time when everybody was still using landline phones. Several people figured out that they could "hack" the phones and make free calls, and even hold secret meetings. The phenomenon was called "phone freaking".
Well, that was all pretty interesting to me, but that is not why I am posting this; Watch the documentary and pay very close attention at the 14 minute mark, it is an old recording of these founding fathers of hacking. You will hear it loud and clear!
I almost spat out my coffee when I heard it. Pretty awesome
