hi sc-l,

Hugh Thompson (of "How to Break Software Security" fame) is the host of his own show on the AT&T Tech Channel.  I went 
up to NY for an interview which was posted last night.  I brought my son Jack and my fiddle along with me.  Check out 
the result:

Question for the list.  Do shows like this help the software security mission?  Are cartoons and animated films about 
things like security attacks a good way to reach a larger audience?  How about case study books about popular subjects 
like EOG?

In order to scale software security to the size needed to make a dent in the problem we need to move from a cast of a 
few thousand to tens of thousands.  Perhaps popular outreach is necessary.
