troll: An individual who [...] regularly posts specious arguments, flames or
personal attacks to a newsgroup, discussion list, or in email for no other
purpose than to annoy someone or disrupt a discussion.
For the full entry, see http://www.catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/T/troll.html
Doug Gwyn is a language expert and a crypto expert. He is also the author of
three excellent chapters in the superb book "Software Solutions in C". He
has a *lot* of credibility. He regularly posts solid, common-sense
arguments in this newsgroup. And yet you insult him by calling him a troll.
I /can/ think of an individual who regularly posts specious arguments,
flames and personal attacks to this newsgroup, for no apparent purpose
other than to annoy or disrupt. But Doug Gwyn isn't that person.
See if you can guess who I mean.

And yet you think the OP would be better served by being referred to
LibTomCrypt rather than to Donald Knuth. Sheesh.
