The B-2 bomber pilots are closer to computer hackers... Hacking is long hours spent quietly trolling for marks and acquiring programs and contacts for your "bag of tricks".. With a few hours of frantic planting the hooks and grabbing what you can before the connection is cut. Ideally, you're like the bomber pilots.. The first time you get noticed is when the bombs are going off and you're already got the data.
