Hi Andy,

Not only off topic... a lot of real world methods are fragile ie work
only as long as the adversary(governments,military,spys) are NOT aware
of what is going on, if methods commonly known as tradecraft were
published then everyone would know and therein would defeat that
practical real life method. (nb cross indexing births and deaths came in
to wide practice by governments because of the dead baby birth
certificate method of acquiring a new identity, popular in the late
1960s to the early 1980s..)


   publishing methods would definitely not serve those using same
effectively..

ps think nazis and the stealing wheelbarrows joke..
