I was exploring cipher design theory long before you started your ADA
drivel here. You'd just have to be knowledgeable about cryptography
to have seen any of it.

Acknowledge by whom? Also I implement ECC as well. How does that fit
into your paradigm?

First off, looking up data in a database is computation. So from a
computational theory point of view there is really no difference
between computing something mechanically (multiplying integers,
polynomials, etc) and looking up values in a database.

Also, your "mutual database" idea is not a public key scheme, it's not
a trap door. It's a symmetric cipher [at best] which is a whole other
beast.

Finally, if the function doesn't have an inverse it's not a trap-
door. It's a one-way function.

Of course you'd know all that if you picked up a book or two and read
them instead of using them to prop open doors.
