And you’ve got to tend to that spark because it’s the most precious thing you’ve got.

But right now, all you need is the courage to take that first step.”

Clever4–1 switches to the secure channel, and they handshake, an exchange of 1028-bit encryption keys set for emergency wireless interface, not 100 percent secure, but close enough if they keep their conversation short.”
