There was an article in the newspaper a day or two ago announcing that some
students at a midwestern university (Indiana?) had hacked together a patch
between the Internet and Saudi Arabia for sending email to the troops.  Does
anybody have any details about how this was done?  My boss's enquiring mind
wants to know.
