No worries -- there are times I feel I reside under a flight path so I'm sorry I sent a jet your way. Regarding the saying, I've probably heard it more often in the locksport community, actually. That's probably what I meant to say instead of locksmithing.
I just started watching videos on opening locks, and I instantly caught the reference. It really reinforces the old hacker mentality, I think, where you're doing kiiiinda in the grey area, but just because it's interesting. Whitehat-ish, I guess.
