We got this courtesy of Professor Ed Felten of Princeton, which is a school in New Jersey.
Professor Felten has been up late, making unique character strings just like this one. You can have your own, but you can’t have ours.
We learned about it from this post in BoingBoing
, which will explain it all to you.
A digression about Cornel WestÂ
We hope that Professor West of Princeton gets his own 128-bit number; in our household, he’s regarded as the greatest living American orator. We’re still disappointed he didn’t end up in the open United States Senate seat for New Jersey a while back, to which Robert Menendez was appointed. Don’t get us wrong - we like Senator Menendez, and worked on his campaign. But we were hoping for Cornel West. Unfortunately, appointing Cornel West would have quadrupled the mean intelligence of the Capitol , and apparently the security people decided the Senate chamber isn’t able to handle the stress.
Popular Logistics promises that if we can, we’ll post a recording of Professor West reading his own number - or ours - he has our permission.
