Schneier Scores Six In A Row

Not counting his routine functional posts and his fascination with squid, Bruce Schneier has put up at least six posts in a row that are well worth reading. Listing them blog-fashion (newest first), they are

• The TSA Is Legally Allowed to Lie to Us 
• Government Secrecy and the Generation Gap 
• Excess Automobile Deaths as a Result of 9/11 
• Conspiracy Theories and the NSA 
• The NSA's Cryptographic Capabilities 
• The NSA Is Breaking Most Encryption on the Internet

Clearly, this is Schneier's time to shine. Most of us are not qualified to judge him as a cryptanalyst, but I may judge him as a writer, and as a writer he is superb. These posts are both long and full of concentrated information... a rare combination, I think you'll agree. If the whole NSA scandal means anything to you, please read Schneier's blog, and keep reading it. You won't be disappointed... squid notwithstanding.
