Hi gang,

Thanks for confirming my sanity re FDE. Apparently the blog that 
was being looked at was:

http://blogs.ittoolbox.com/security/investigator/archives/to-encrypt-or-not-to-encrypt-14766

Not quite as awful as it could be, but very uninformed about the 
real world of work, especially health care. What I see is that he 
is so focused on being perfect and making his own job easier that 
he neglects that other people need to get their jobs done as well.

Also, if this is indeed the blog that got KPs knickers in a 
twist, they don't understand what is being said and the 
underlying assumptions. Oh, well.

Best,

Allen
