I hope Ben Podgursky got a good grade on this work. It is *really* good to see ideas from the scientific community, such as k-anonymity, being applied, pondered on and improved 'outside' that community. Please consider submitting a write-up of this work to the HotPETS track of the PETS 2011 conference ( http://petsymposium.org/2011/ ) as your work continues; and talk about it at engineering conferences.

Where the hash result is the same, the records match.
