(10,751 posts)...that is not strictly technically "just so". It's part of their schtick.
Furthermore, I am very aware that ORCA was a piece of software intended to help with GOTV. Or at least so we're told.
However, the Anonymous email mentioned ORCA but did not claim it was the central element: "We identified the digital structure of Karl's operation and even that of his ORCA." Please read carefully: "Karl's operation" "and" "his ORCA". Two separate things.
So yes, the letter was filled with flowery language and less-than-tech-spec language. It was intended to be somewhat of a popularization. As I stated, I don't know at all whether they really did prevent some vote-switching in Ohio. After 2004's debacle, I am not inclined to dismiss it out-of-hand, that's all. And certainly not because some hackers decided to use flowery language.
Now as far as the personal attack in your header, my response is: you can go to hell.
