Well, doh! The question then becomes, is the risk of possible
interception/decryption more or less than the cost to achieve the next level
of security. At which point this reveals itself for what it really is;
little more than yet another exercise in FUD marketing by the IT security
industry.

The key phrase is 'for all practical purposes' <bg>
All encryption can be cracked. It's just a matter of time (and computer
power).
Here is just one example:

If someone _really_ wants to get the information, they can.
I think that was the point that Bob was making.
