/* Introduction */


     Happy Halloween and welcome to the 5th issue of the Informatik
Journal.  Though still suffering the slings and arrows of higher
education, we have again managed to crank out an issue.  Unfortunately we
are still having a very poor response to our call for submissions.  Come
on! Contribute it.  Even if you aren't an expert, we can all benefit from
a little research on your part.  Just head on out to the local library,
find something interesting, and research it into a nice, informative
article.  We welcome information on the government, radio, computer
hacking, preaking, and anything else of interest to the "computer
underground" crowd.  Even if you are not a writer, we welcome any feedback
you may have concerning informatik.  Speaking of which, WE HAVE MOVED
SHOP!  Thanks to our pals in Pittsburgh, we now have a new home:
(inform@grind.cheme.cmu.edu) All subscription requests, feedback, etc,
should be sent to that address.  The old address is no longer valid, so
any correspondance to our previous address has long since entered the
cyber void.

     The bulk of this issue (135k!!) is devoted to an article on Security
Devices that is the most complete guide to locks, lockpicking, and
security systems available to date.  It should prove interesting to you
all.  In other news XMAS CON IS COMING!  The whole staff of Informatik
will be there, as will plenty of other interesting characters.  Be there,
its always interesting.  Radio scanners need to check out the new
collection of Secret Services frequencies and information on the latest,
greatest cellular interception restrictions.  And wrapping it up, we have
the third and final part our series on The HP3000's 'SECURITY/3000' system.

     We've been asked to pass along that a bbs has been set up on 128.2.55.27
for those of you with internet access.  Simply logon as bbs.

     Informatik staff currently consists of Sterling, and MackHammer
(between naps), with additional assistance provided by Live0ne and
Holistic.  If you are interested in working with the staff, drop us a
line.

                                            Enjoy,

                                            Informatik Staff
