Reply #5: I wasn't thinking of it re: polling

I was thinking of it re: transmission. Particularly data transmission over phone lines to computers. Read the above description from Wikipedia.

ZeoSync was making claims about 0 data compression which created quite a buzz in the computing world but then it was disputed far and wide. And ZeoSync was being run by a couple of apparent conmen, St. George and H. Hamby Hutcheson, but had Dr. Blass and Dr. Smale on board, a couple of math phenoms both from the University of Michigan.

IOW, think "hacking" in regards to this. Remember, the fear is/was that the data could be changed remotely over phone lines, or over wireless nets.
