Finding the Stelle inadvertantly led Stochastic Fats to discover that he was not the only one to have pieced together the Stelle's contents. Indeed, Stochastic Fats inadvertantly stumbled across the greatest conspiracy of all time!
He stumbled across DMP.
We won't bore you with the details. Suffice to say, the problem for Fats was never getting in, it was finding what he was looking for once he was in. It was simply a matter of realizing that if Fats existed in several universes at once, then his brain was literally a Quantum Computer. With this simple insight, Fats was able to accomplish miracles through a secret stochastic process embedded deap within his mind. There was no public encryption that could keep him out. He had public access. The key was not the RADS (Random Access Data Steam)as he called it, but in knowing what to look for. This was not something that could be bought or sold. This was only something that, for lack of a better word, could be 'evolved.' Anyway, Fats was gifted. It was this gift that allowed him to walk undetected through all the world's data bases. It was this gift that allowed him to find what he was looking for.
When Fats discovered the Catalog number, he was not looking for it. But he knew when he found it that it had significance. Primarily it was where he found it that tingled his RADAR (RAdio Detecting And Ranging). The dumpster that contained all this worthless paper was scheduled to be recycled. As certain government agencies spend so much time making paperwork they don't always have enough time to shred it all. Sometimes it builds up. Sometimes it gets lost. Sometimes it winds up here, at the recycling plant, unshredded. In this case, the dumpster was full of shredded documents but the locator tag had not been removed and the documents had not yet been recycled. The locator tag gave him the precise location from where these documents originated and it told him these documents came from someplace very dark and very ugly. That was enough for him to grab a bag full of the stuff right there. His 128-bit Flatbed had an algorithm just for stuff like this. It had a SUNIE, a SUN Inferential Engine that could do wonders. But where Stochastic gets his name from is that as he was going deep into the bowels of the dumpster for a handfull, he discovered an index card of the unshredded variety. That was three mistakes and three was a pretty powerful number.
