I don't know how widespread the problem is but at Georgia Tech
(my alma mater ... sob... sniff...) the department is so strangled for
funds that unless they get a job on "the inside", they can't get any
computer time. I happened to get jobs in both the CS department and
the department which supplies resources to the campus just 1 quarter
before the big crackdown came. I came through it but I saw the late-
night hackers become a dying breed. The only ones that still survive
are the ones that still work here. The student hacker type around here
is now pretty much non-existent. I feel that it is too bad, since I
learned a lot from the others I used to "hack" with. Oh well,....
