And when Stanford was getting hacked, where was BBN... Answer: right on the Stanford campus, in Stanford buildings!
In the interests of getting the history right. Cliff published his book in 1989 (reporting events, I think from 1987 but I can't find my copy of the book). BBN acquired BARNET and began operating parts of its network from Stanford buildings no sooner than 1991 (I personally delivered the bid from BBN Planet [now Genuity] to the BARNET offices and I didn't move to California until September 1991).
