i'm implying that DES died 10+ years back.  i carried out the odd
'experiment' with some fast h/w and large amounts of disk [then].

DES unix password cracking came down to a grep of 4096
files, so a few seconds.  this was done for internal, sanctioned
[allowed] security issues.

i knew it was dead.  i just wanted to test it.  sadly, the
'experiment' was terminated, once it had proven its
point.

3DES is another issue.
