@PhuxBuiii See 46:00... Stoll says he celebrates with a strawberry milkshake when they finally get the hacker's phone number from the phone trace. I don't remember if this part is in the book, but it's a fun line in the Nova video.

Thanks for posting the complete episode. I recorded it from PBS when it first aired in the early 90's then bought it from the PBS store around 2001. It's nice to see a nice digital copy.
