You see, if you want Crypto, you'll want the Breastplate of
Saint Zimmerman or a few Hail Schneiers. But for adherence
to proper standards and protocols, you want a proper Postel

(You should look up more info on Jon Postel if you don't get
the "Authority" thing. Try http://www.postel.org or RFC 2468.)

The reference to Hail Schneiers tickled my fancy...
