RE: Do you rival Crash Override?! Do you have a 1337 h4x0r in your midst? Bless them/yourself with the most sacred gift of all, The Hacker Quarterly: 2600 Magazine!
A quarterly magazine on hacking and they accept bitcoin. I am assuming there are hackfests and hackers conventions out there too. How about a how to DVD available on amazon. maybe a hacking for dummies. Before you know it it will be taught in our school systems.
2600 has a conference called HOPE (Hackers On Planet Earth) that is held in NY. The last time I went was 2006 and I made very good friends from it.
Yep, I've always wanted attend HOPE.
This particular magazine has been deep rooted in the scene since 1984. They aren't your run of the mill cheesy, fake, trying to look cool, security publication. It's a great magazine.
They started HOPE convention, definitely a good one, I think they are on their 12th year now.
I agree that it will be attempted to be taught in schools, but it's hard to teach a mode of thinking to someone. I feel like someone has to be "wired," in a way to think subversively and to always be analyzing things in a ways of "can I break this?" "Can I make this do something that it isn't supposed to do?" "Can I hack this in some manner?!"
