Bad form to reply to self. :/
I totally fail to understand how I could have written the text below. I am a
worse idiot than the idiot son of a family that has inbred idiots with each
other for twelve generations. Known-plaintext just won't work against
Blowfish. The scheme is still stupid for other reasons (replay / spoofing,
for example) but not that.
I blame early mornings.
If Mr Doyle is listening anywhere - sorry. :)
