DSA and EC both have benefits in some rare circumstances. That's the 1% of the time when you ought to consult a cryptographer.

I'm aware that my advice concerning AES does not match Schneier's advice. I don't think he takes side channel attacks seriously enough.

He also thought "cube cryptanalysis" was going to break most modern ciphers. Do you think he's a serious practitioner? I think he's a pundit.
