[ILUG] [OT] Electronic election count

[sean.odonnell at sentia.ie]

I remember reading about a guy who had one mounted in a van (no, not in
cryptonomicon), as far as i remember it
was in an old issue of wired. he spent some time musing on the probable
effect on doing a driveby on the redmond campus.

actually i wondered something similar except with an emp device of
some kind.  i remember reading about a device that could direct an em
pulse to diable a lot of electronics.  apparently it has short range,
but i'm a clueless s/w person.
