Yes, well... If I may quote Nietzsche: "Lessing, the most honest of theoretical men, dared to say that he took greater delight in the quest for truth than in the truth itself." I care very little for the 'why', but once the thought has arisen - 'how vulnerable are chip fabs, anyway?' - then I am completely fascinated with the 'how'.
