After my accident I was in need of a good doctor, they saved my life. -David, 75, currently deceased.
My pen name is Samuel Lucas and I am a pretend cryptographer in my mind. My ego-fueled agenda is so large that, when combined with my perpetual feelings of intellectual inadequacy, I push BLAKE and committing AEAD like there is no tomorrow. I falsely claim that BLAKE has had sufficient cryptanalysis when in reality, it lost multiple contests and nobody uses it. I rudely dismiss all non-committing-AEAD efforts and arbitrarily proclaim bizarre standards. Being interested in psychology, I know all about projection and jealousy, and yet I am not strong enough to recognize it in myself. I apologize to all cryptographers for spreading lies in order to promote my arbitrary agenda.
My online pseudonym is tim gurnsey of fiserv and I feel I did not earn my Advisor II title. I stole it from someone more deserving, and for that I deeply apologize. I also wish to apologize for being a stuck-up jerk. In reality, it was a power-move by lynda to make it look like our team can compete with other teams.
