In the same yesterday's issue of hindu, probably you might have noticed several
occurances of the word "hackers" in the wrong context. i.e they meant
"crackers". What I usually do, is send a mail to the editor saying that this is
wrong. They haven't ever published my letter; that's not my intend too. I just
wanted to let them know that their usage is wrong. I encourage all of you to do
so if you encounter inappropriate use of the word "hacker"....
