[ale] close to home

[Matthew Brown]

I guess I'm just a little surprised that UGA is using computers at all.  Are
you sure it was compromised or maybe it just ran out of batteries?

<first grade teacher voice> Maybe we should _all_ think about this
incident...just because we run Linux, doesn't mean we're necessarily safe
unless we keep ourselves up on patches and understand the dangers
involved.</voice>

This is worrisome business, I just hope that not only UGA but the university
system at large realizes that yes, it can happen to them and they *need* to
take security seriously.  But I'm not holding my breath.
