You may or may not have notice who seems to be running the show in most countries.

It is said that "Old age and treachery beats youth and skill every time."

Maybe you missed this, but we're doing cryptography here.

Quote

Cryptography (or cryptology; from Greek κρυπτός kryptós, "hidden, secret"; and γράφειν graphein, "writing", or -λoγία -logia, "study", respectively)[1] is the practice and study of techniques for secure communication in the presence of third parties (called adversaries).[2] More generally, it is about constructing and analyzing protocols that overcome the influence of adversaries[3] and that are related to various aspects in information security such as data confidentiality, data integrity, authentication, and non-repudiation.[4] Modern cryptography intersects the disciplines of mathematics, computer science, and electrical engineering.

It's an entire field dedicated toward using math to reduce the ability of people like you to "run the show."

BTW, I think I'm almost exactly the same age as Gavin (of CFR fame.) Just sayin'
