I am no longer a parent; my son is happy and well but I can't see him until I get some stuff sorted out.

Parenting Stack Exchange is unbearably sad for me now.

Thanks for the help, and I hope that I was at least some use here.

I welcome friendly chats over email. dan dot bealecocks at googlemail dot com yes that's my real name.

Sep 2	comment	How can we reason about the cryptographic capabilities of code-breaking agencies like the NSA or GCHQ? Your comment seems to ignore ECHELON, where the US co-operated with UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, to monitor telephone (and other) communications. ECHELON was implicated in a number of government level industrial espionage events. The US happily joined ECHELON, despite the risk to their own country's industrial privacy.
Sep 2	comment	Is modern encryption needlessly complicated? The op's use of the word simply in the sentence "Simply generate a random string with length m where m is at least as large as n," made me laugh. :-)
