boards in the computer, replacing copper wires. Because of the high-speed

GTE said it has completed a prototype of the GaAs multiplexer and a final
version should be ready in less than a year.
Comments: And meanwhile, while GTE's been building gigabit/second
multiplexers, AT&T Bell Labs is still experimenting with the neuron

The LOD/H Technical Journal
---------------------------
The Legion Of Doom/Hackers Technical Journal is a soft-copy free newsletter
whose primary purpose is to further the knowledge of those who are interested
in topics such as: Telecommunications, Datacommunications, Computer & Physical
Security/Insecurity and the various technical aspects of the phone system.
The articles are totally original unless otherwise stated. All sources of
information for a specific article are listed in the introduction or conclusion
of the article. They will not accept any articles that are unoriginal,
plagiarized, or contain invalid or false information. Articles will be
accepted from anyone who meets those criteria. They are not dependant upon
readers for articles, since members of LOD/H and a select group of others will
be the primary contributors, but anyone can submit articles.
There is no set date for releasing issues, as they have no monetary or legal
obligation to the readers, but they predict that issues will be released
every 2 or 3 months. Thus, expect 4 to 6 issues a year assuming that they
continue to produce them, which they intend to do.
The bulletin boards sponsoring the LOD/H TJs include:

had busted everyone at a phreak con (or something like that), and how he [Line
Breaker] and some other people called Videosmith up, pretending to be feds, and

Blade Runner was terribly pissed at Sir Gamelord (who had recently attempted to
