Absolutely. If the system is that insecure, then I am not going to take it
just on someone's say so. With respect to Ahmad, I've been caught out this

If Ahmad is right and it is so easy to hack NHSnet addresses, then I think
we have a duty to demonstrate it and set off a debate about making the thing
more secure.
Anyone going to take up the challenge?
