What personal flaws? I mean no disrespect to jim and cj at all.To me teenagerhoods good.Very good.(check google if you dont believe me) Im sorry that it appears jim missed out a little.I have no way of knowing that actually so Im taking liberties.I guess jim got into trouble for stinkbombing,destroying mail and stalking because he just wanted to get more publicity? And CJ was clearly set up but from what I read of his he has a great spirit that gets crushed out of most of us some time between childhood and adulthood.If growing up means accepting 5 million laws and all the grey mind dead bureaucrats that go with them,I refuse to grow up. The ideas remain undetracted by my petty bitching about jims use of freud and his choice of restaurants,what was the supposed 'hate' literature in his car btw? CJ is immaculate in my book.The very model of a modern major madcriminal.I just cant read all his stuff,right away.Im fuckin busy man,allright?

If that was a lie, then it is odd that until Khruschev renounced Stalin, the entire left fell for it. I have frequently commented on Chomsky's extraordinary servility towards Soviet foreign policy. Even to this day the socialists white wash Sihanouk, because though he was murdering real and suspected communists internally, he served Soviet foreign policy in external affairs. --digsig James A.

Perhaps, but this does not negate the discriminative value of n-grams.

We even tolerate your unmedicated rants for the same reason. Cf Rand and her affair. Condit does not count.

In order to seriously deploy encrypted email you need to kick the email client support problem and the key management problem at the same time. One possible role for EFF would be as a founding member of an encrypted email industry consortium analogous to W3C. Such an organization would have to be positioned as a way to fight cyberterrorism and protect infrastructure. It would be nice to get Ximian, the KDE project and Qualcomm to join, and use the words "Secure Email" or "Email Security" in the organization's name somewhere. You probably aren't going to get any mail client vendor that depends on many Secret Police customers to join. -- Don Marti What do we want? Free Dmitry! When do we want it?
