        Errant nonsense. Larry was misinformed and misinformed you. SDTI
and RSA have been all over this for days. The swap problem is real. The
problem is acknowledged as such, and a fix is in the works. Hopefully, any
other call to SDTI (for whom I'm a dime-a-day consultant) will find someone
properly informed.

        Eo nomine, humble apologies are offered.

        Everyone I've talked to at SDTI and RSA is taking this very
seriously. You should not have had to deal with this sort of silliness.

        Suerte,
