maybe Kalifornians should start an referendum to drug test politicians... since most of them are dopes anyway...

Look at the two sites : http://www.e-gold.com http://www.e-golb.com - BTW the registrant's info is phony, Docent doesn't know her, carder.com user search fails, may she get boiled alive someday I never opened an e-gold account. I wonder where the fuckers got my e-mail address - here or because I check markets on kitco?

It's already a reality in some sports and some countries. In France for instance, police can randomly drug test professional cyclists at any time. They can also search them, their houses and cars at any time and with no warrant. Italy also has somewhat similar provisions. Perata is a well-known rights-taker. He's also a well-known hypocrite, having sponsored gun-grabbing legislation while using his position to get himself a concealed weapon permit, something that is nearly always denied to ordinary California citizens. http://www.nrawinningteam.com/calnra/perata/ Eric

In my notion, she publishes her kth root of g, Bob raises it to the rth power, and Alice then raises it to the kth power to recover g^r. > So the important questions are: > > * Given g^a%n and a', can Alice derive (p-1)(q-1)?

No, given g and the kth root of g, she clearly can't find phi(n), because every RSA signature supplies such a pair. > * Given g^k%n and k' for lots of different k, can we derive (p-1)(q-1) or > otherwise imitate Trent's ability to give out (g^k%n, k') pairs? I think this is OK too. See the Strong RSA Assumption, for example at http://www.zurich.ibm.com/security/ace/sig.pdf. Basically this says that you can't find kth roots mod an RSA modulus without knowing the factors. You might want to ask this on sci.crypt, they are pretty good with pure math questions like this one.
