Intriguing ... it's only 6 or 7 years old and was still classed as strong
about 4 or 5 years ago :) But generally, yes, I have seen blowfish treated
with less respect. It's been superceded by twofish. Not sure what the
security of this is.
There's only one really strong crypto method: one-time pads ... its just
generating long enough and random enough pads :)
