Started from a bunch of links etc. on AndrewMcMeikan it outgrew and deserved some description by those more qualified to do so. Written from first person too much and not really informative, hope it mutates into something better. "Fly and be free!" --AndrewMcMeikan : "Fly and be free!" is a phrase popularised by an early (the pilot?) episode of the early 1980's sitcom 'MorkAndMindy.' In the episode, Mork opens a container of eggs and, thinking they are small Ork capsules (since the Orks use these capsules for space travel), Mork picks an egg up, and utters "Fly and be free!", tossing the egg into the air. Since eggs do not in general fly, it falls to the counter, creating a mess, and ushers forth copious amounts of canned T.V. laughter. ---- Will geeks end up replacing banks with a distributed cryptographically secure financial accounting system?
