February 18, 1997

 

Emily Hahn died on February 18, 1997. Hahn was an adventurous American writer, when such junketing around was unusual. As a young adult she lived in China, and there had a Siamese cat named Jocasta. I am not sure of Jocasta's fate, during a revolutionary period, but Hahn would casually leave her children later, and perhaps her maternal instincts flowed a little shallow. She worked at her office at the New Yorker daily into her eighties.

August 6, 1963

Kevin Mitnick was born on August 6, 1963. He was at one time the most wanted criminal computer hacker in the world. Nowadays he is a rich (and deservedly so) computer security consultant. His latest book (2008) is titled:  "No Tech Hacking: A Guide to Social Engineering, Dumpster Diving, and Shoulder Surfing." Mitnick co-authored this book, and I am not sure if he or his co-author has a cat, but one of them definitely does. This book mentions shredding old mail to use for cat litter.
