Thanks Gadi.

However, I'm going to call you on this:
1. What "easy analysis" are you using?
   I listed my approaches.  If you are using a different approach, I'd
   like to hear what it is.  (I'm not trying to be argumentative -- I
   want to learn.)

2. You said, "n3td3v is not gobbles".
   Do you know for a fact that n3td3v is not Gobbles Security?
   Or is this an interpretation?
   If you know for a fact, then how do you know?

On 1-Sep-2006, a new person controlling the n3td3v account appeared.
He is likely English/Brit (based on the topics he posted).  But I did not
see enough text to analyze.
The older n3td3v postings were by 3 people, not one person.
(And primarily by three people -- a few postings were ambiguous and could
indicate more people.)
