I was lucky enough to realize this at 15. I've got to be in the top 1% of high school drop outs. After you get to a certain level professionally everyone just assumes you have a college degree anyway.

I'm still surprised how well this classic attack works. I've seen $100k IDS and firewall packages not detect this. I use this personally. Works behind captive portals sometimes too: http://code.kryo.se/iodine/
