I noticed one internally inconsistent detail, although possibly he just mis-remembered. They called him "after midnight" in Connecticut. He called them back, which took less than 10 minutes. After some discussion he calls his employee in Oregon - "by then it was after 4AM on the west coast." Midnight in Connecticut is 9PM on the West Coast, so unless the conversation went on for 7 hours before he called Ron, he's wrong about one or the other of the times.

- pavritch 8y agoYou're absolutely right...I forgot the time diff as I wrote the story and some is just plain fuzzy after all this time. I spent hours on the phone with them that night and I was giving them guidance by memory since I was so familiar with the code. Somewhere in the course of that they ventured to ask for he source.
