This is funny. I was really drawn into the conversation due to the names. 108.162.246.117 07:05, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Me too! And I'm even more drawn to the meta-conversation!!  :) Nealmcb (talk) 13:30, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
But what about me? Alice and Bob get way too much time already.... Carol (whisper) 13:30 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Heh. I was immediately reminded of the movie, Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064100/ I wonder if that movie influenced the encryption names, or vice versa, or mere coincidence?108.162.216.72 12:31, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

I think the explanation looks complete to me. I vote to remove the tag. Jarod997 (talk) 14:04, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Removed then. There was someone who asked for more Cryptography comic references. I found 14 and have thus made a new category (see link below). Feel free to add more if I have not found them all by serching on Cryptography and Encryption (I have only included those where there were some direct mention of these issues in the commic (or title text) and not just because there was mention of it in the explanation. However, the words does not have to appear in the commic before I included them. i.e. PGP. But also feel free to delete one from the list if I was too quick to include it Kynde (talk) 15:45, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
