MEGA$NETS=MEGABUCK$ ANYBODY CAN DO THIS. NO APPLICATION NO INVENTORY NO MEETING NO PRODUCTION REQUIREMENT NO BRAINER, EVEN A MONKEY COULD DO THIS!!! JUST $$CASH$$ LOTS & LOTS & LOTS OF CASH !!$$!!$$!! This is one of the most simple and yet brilliant plans ever created. Everybody wins! BUT you must follow it exactly!! If you do the soon you will be laughing all the way to the bank. You are holding information in your hands on a home-based business concept of the next century! This is a networking breakthrough of enormous potentials! And it is here now and ready to help you earn the kind of income you deserve! Welcome to the majors. MEGA$NETS combines 3 of the most powerful income opportunities of our time....computers, mail order, and network marketing. Together, they offer you a home-based business you can work full or part-time. MEGA$NETS is an easy to use yet sophisticated software program to help the average person get in on the fabulous profits being made in the computer networking age. Most of us know the future is in computers. An estimated 150,000 new people are getting on the internet each month! MEGA-PROFITS will be earned with computers whether you and I are involved or not. So why not get involved Now? The IBM compatible MEGA$NETS software disk cost just $20, yet it is designed to bring you a tremendous income within a remarkable short period of time. HERE'S HOW IT WORKS Purchase the MEGA$NETS software disk for just $20 from the person sharing this opportunity with you. Load it into your PC. You will be impressed with the professional appearance of the software and how easy it is to operate! The Menu includes access to a complete set of instructions. you also receive seperate written and step by step instructions,so you do not even need to be familiar with computers! STEP 1. The computer will ask you to type in your own name & address. Be sure this information is correct. Once you click to the next screen, your information will be permanently locked into the program. No one can remove it!!! STEP2. Next you will see the names and addresses of 5 on your screen. Now move to the next screen and click on " Purchase Orders". Your printer will automatically produce a seperate Purchase Order for each of those 5 vendors. Simply mail the orders, enclose a Self Addressed Stamped Envelope and money order OR cash for $20 with each. In return for your orders and payment, the 5 vendors will each send you a different code number. Your total expenditure is $120: $20 for your original program disk and 5x20 for your codes. STEP 3. Enter these into the computer program where it tells you to do so, and now you are able to make copies of your disk. YOU CANNOT MAKE COPIES OF DISKS WITHOUT THES 5 CODES. The program will not let you. STEP 4. Once you enter the 5 codes you can now duplicate the disk and sell each duplicated disk to other people who own or have access to a compatible PC. They will want to buy because of the profit potential they too will have! Selling is not difficult, Most people see the opportunity just by reading this letter. WHAT DO BUYERS DO? When your customer loads your duplicated disk, they will be instructed to do the same as you. They will purchase the computer codes they need to "unlock" their program ( just like you did ) and begin to duplicate the disk, as many times as they wish. Before they duplicate, your name and address will have automatically been added into the system as an additional code vendor and one name will have been deleted. This is no different than removing a name from your rolodex. One name is added, one is removed. MONEY MAKER LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN!!! This is what could happen. If you sell a minimum of 6 disks for $20 each, you will have back your original $120 ( Except for the cost of some blank disks). If those 6 people sell just 6 each all of those 36 disks will list your name and address as a code vendor. 36 people will now send you $20 each along with a Purchase Orders generated by their disk ( total potential here is another $720 ). All you do is enter the Purchase Order information into your program and your computer will automatically print out the codes they have purchased from you. This takes about 30 seconds. Mail the codes to your customers right away! Remember, the sooner they get their codes, the sooner your name will be duplicated again and again! Now when those 36 people sell to 6 people each, your name will automatically move to the next position on ther screen. As one of the five code vendors, 216 (36 x 6) will each be sending you $20 for your codes ( which they must have to let them make copies they can sell ). That's $4320 to add to your first $720...which add up to $5040 so far. And that's only the start of it! if the 216 people sell to only 6 others each, and your name moves to the 3rd position on everybodys screen, potentially 1,296 people will be sending you $20...which is $25,920 PLUS the $5,040 you received earlier. The potential earning so far could total $30,960 ! THE MULTIPLIER EFFECT ( Here is where it becomes AWESOME !) Your next payment in the 4th position could be $20 times 7776, which is $155,520 .. Add that to your previous $30,960, and the grand total is $186,480... when the 5th and final position is reached, your name disappears from future duplicated disks. By then your TOTAL INCOME COULD BE $1,119,600!! AND REMEMBER THAT'S IF EVERYONE IN YOUR GROUP ONLY SOLD 6 DISKS. CAN YOU SELL MORE THAN SIX DISKS? YES! MEGA$NETS allows you to make as manys disks as you wish. The 5 codes you buy have licensed you to duplicate as many disks as you want. The software will even calculate the results with whatever number you choose. NO ONE CAN CHEAT YOU!! That's right , it's impossible to cheat MEGA$NETS software! No names and addresses can be erased to put in the names of "friends", and the software is programmed to generate constantly changing codes, nothing works! You are a true computer software vendor and provider of valuable computer information codes that only you can provide for your customers. The MEGA$NETS Business System disk was developed by a professional commercial computer programmer. It looks professional and works professionally. ( Some of today's best whiz-kids have tried to break the system and failed.) In addition, MEGA$NETS checks itself for viruses. If it finds any modifications, it would simply refuse to run, so your system is fully protected without damaging your files. The distribution process is a similar safeguard. By holding a duplicate of the software within itself, MEGA$NETS makes absolutely sure that each copy is the same as the original, but with your personalized information. Let's take a mintue and truly understand what this business is all about. First of all, it is NOT an investment. You are purchasing a product: a computer software program with a 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. Next, you can buy codes that will unlock the program so you can make duplicated disks and sell them. Soon, customers will be requesting codes from you. You become a vendor. You have something your customers need. That's real sales! That's real business! Isn't that what American businesses do every day of the week? Don't they get paid for selling someone a product, a service or just some information? IS THIS LEGAL? As we have seen, MEGA$NETS is like any other legal information-driven company. First, you sell the software program which includes valuable marketing information your customers can use for any business. Secondly,as an information vendor, you will be selling valuable computer codes to your customers.Thirdly, you will be developing a mailing list out of your customers that can help you in promoting other customers that can help you in promoting other income opportunities you may want to offer. Huge multi-billion dollar worldwide companies do this every hour of the day. MEGA$NETS is no different,we just use network marketing to get the job done.Plus, there are NO MEETINGS TO ATTEND and no corporate headquaters or hot-shot executives who can change the plan or grab your earnings. In effect, you are the owner and CEO of your own computer software network marketing company! All you have to do now is purchase your disk and you are on your way to earnings potential that will bring you financial independence! Just be ready to handle the volume! You are now in the computer software mail order business. Treat this like a real business and it can earn you the income of a real business! MEGA$INCOME. DONT WAIT. DO IT NOW!!!

BXA's KR Agents, NSA's Cult
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

BXA published yesterday its guidelines for getting approval as a Key Recovery Agent: http://jya.com/bxa-kraguide.htm The House Select Committee on Intelligence "has concluded that very large changes in the National Security Agency's culture and method of operations need to take place ... and that NSA will not meet its Unified Cryptologic Architecture (UCA) goals without tackling head-on some very fundamental internal obstacles." Even so, as others earlier noted here, the Committee has ruled out lifting encryption export controls. http://jya.com/ciise.htm

Kirtland Air Force Base

Saturday 5/30/98 5:15 PM J Orlin Grabbe Masanori Fushimi Orline just saw Spies Turn to High Tech Info Ops both at at http://www.aci.net/kalliste/ and http://www.jya.com/crypto.htm Friday at noon, after Lunch with Morales, I ventured onto Kirtland AFB through the Wyoming gate. In order to get into the National Atomic Museum I had to produce 1 Drivers license 2 proper car registration 3 proof of insurance. The airman who was to check 1,2,and 3 was busy on the phone. The airman was reading serial numbers on a bullet-proof vest. I asked the airman who THEY were afraid of. The airman responded, 1 gangs 2 militias The airman quipped that while he was unlucky enough to lose on a lottery ticket, he might be unfortunate enough to take bullet. Therefore, the airman said he was wearing a bullet-proof vest, even in about 90F weather. I went to the museum and bought two FIRST ATOMIC BOMBARDMENT, 50th ANNIVERSARY refrigerator magnets, like the one I sent to John Young. I mailed the one to Orlin, but I have the one for Masanori pasted on the side on one of my computers. Masanori, the book Decision to Use the Atomic Bomb by Gar Alperovitz presents fairly good evidence some in US government nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki merely to impress the Russians. Unfortunately, as we can see by the current government crypto debacle, overall intellect of the US government has not improved much since 1945. And maybe has decreased. Masanori, one positive side of the unfortunate matter is that LOTS MORE people are reading your scientific papers. http://av.yahoo.com/bin/query?p=gfsr&hc=0&hs=0 Lets all, of course, hope for settlement of these regrettable matters. Later and, of course, Allahu akbar bill

But first, a who's who of the people involved in the war on the Arts/Music - gopher://gopher.igc.apc.org/00/orgs/alternet/demval/cultwars You'll notice Mr. and Mrs. Richard DeVos of the DeVos foundation listed, his son runs Amway, and Richard was the guy who started it (along with another person).

You can find a real one here on &y's server (if not in the supposed user's address ;-) ) - http://www.roadkill.com/~dpgerdes/ But these guys don't like to do business with folk other than their own, that's why they use that symbol. Here's where &y's X-tian fish is - "&y". Take the & and remove the top loop of it in your mind, and it certainly looks MUCH like an X-tian fish! That's how I found &y's picture, I looked for that symbol on his server. You see, his compadres know what to look for. Can you say "right-wing conspiracy"? Sure, I knew ya could! ===== &y (Andy) Burnett is the "moderator nazi" (his words) of that list. He has no real info about himself on his facad server - Roadkill Consulting (www.roadkill.com) But he had a picture stashed (in a 5 meg movie) in a place that only his right-wing buddies (or someone observing the right-wing conspiracy) would think to click. On one of his supposed user's boring pages at the very bottom in fine print where he thanks "&y" for his webspace, and the "&y" is a link. So, if you also see a bunch of evidence against folk other than the Amway employee, remember, that Amway employee is part of a gang, and that accomplices in crimes are JUST as guilty as the actual trigger-person, therefore, you need to know what his compadres are also doing.

Earn $100 every time OUR phone rings...
by troen444＠worldnet.att.net 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

ALL YOU DO IS ADVERTISE THIS 800 NUMBER! THAT'S ALL!! $100 goes to you for EVERY sale that the company closes! Does the idea of making at least $1,000 per week beginning your 2nd week of doing business excite you? How about never having to sell a thing to your customer and never having to talk to ANYONE to make money? I don't know how this could get any easier. Take a look at my latest WEEKLY commission checks: http://www.cyberdue.com/fortune/ EVERY aspect of selling or talking to someone is DONE COMPLETELY by the company! The number one home based business for the 2nd year in a row, Fortune 5000 is a member of the Better Business Bureau and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. WHAT THIS BUSINESS WILL DO FOR YOU: * Handles all your calls, closes your sales, and sends you WEEKLY commission checks! * It pays you a $100 commission (that's over 50% of the total sale) for EVERY sale. CHECKS put $$$ in your pocket in less than your first week or two... Quick commission earnings build and maintain motivation. ALL YOU DO IS ADVERTISE the toll-free number and your ID number. * You can get STARTED TODAY. Just advertise the business toll-free number with your ID # and let this business CLOSE YOUR SALES every day... They do all the work and YOU GET PAID FOR IT! * You may advertise any way you choose: Bulk E-Mail, Flyers, Classifieds, Postcards, etc. Suppose you use bulk E-Mail, as I am: 100,000 E-Mails with a 1/10th of a percent (0.1%) sales rate at $100 per sale nets $10,000... not too bad. There is nothing else out there that will provide you with an immediate income beginning THIS WEEK with minimal effort. Before you call, I want you to think about the quality of the live operators handling your call. I am convinced you will not find a better team of closers for your own personal sales. You will clearly understand what I am talking about once you call. PLEASE DON'T LET THIS PASS YOU BY. MAKE THE CALL!! 1-800-811-2141 You will be asked for ID #50030 when you call. (Live operators are available from 8 AM-10 PM CST Monday through Saturday and will be able to answer any questions you may have.)

Cypherpunks, I would like to thank Xcott for sending me that faq. Alos, thanks to the other guy who sent the info on e-mailing your way around the web...It is VERY confusing... I just have a few quick questions. I have gotten well over 25 messages from this list and so far only one of them had _anything_ to do with crypto...I know that most or all of you have a bit of background in crypto but I am just learning. So what I am wanting to know is a: are there any other crypto e-lists that are for newbies? b: are there any better text philes to read that give a better introduction that is for a newbie and c: what do you people feel is the best encryption someone can have that I could get? Thanks, D. _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

This is complicated by the fact that there are several FAQs in that directory. One, combined, is 100K. Juno has a message limit of around 64K, meaning that the FAQ would have to be split, and I don't know what the upper limit is on the size of a mailspool at Juno. My suggestion is to sneak into a public university computer lab, sit down at a machine then FTP it and put it on a floppy. Most of the people in these labs don't ask questions because getting carded tends to really tick the students off. If they do, say you left your ID card in your car, that you're very sorry, that you usually don't get asked for it when you walk in, that you're taking <professor's name> <name of one of his CS classes> class, that you only need about 5 minutes of time, and that you'll remember it next time.

Foundation for Information Policy Research
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Source: http://www.ntk.net/fipr/ Subject: URGENT: press release - FIPR Date: Thu, 28 May 1998 16:52:16 +0100 From: Ross Anderson Title: New Independent Research Foundation Backed by Microsoft Embargoed until 11.00 Friday 29th May Too often, policy issues relating to information technology are seperately debated by two distinct grouups: technology experts and those focused on social concerns. Policy makers face the challenge of reconciling the seperate debates in areas where technology is often evolving very quickly. A new research foundation aims to provide clear advice that spans this gap and is independent of vested interests. The Foundation for Information Policy Research will fund research into how information technology affects society. It is launched at a press conference on Friday 29th May at 11.00 am. (1) Microsoft has contributed a six-figure sum to cover the launch costs. Internet service providers Poptel and Demon are also supporting the Foundation. Its independence will be guaranteed, however, by a board of trustees. (2) In the medium term it will be supported by subscriptions from a range of firms in commerce and industry. The goal of the Foundation is to promote research and understanding of the effects, and the likely future effects, of IT on society. Its areas of investigation include: (3) * the regulation of electronic commerce; * consumer protection; * data protection and privacy; * copyright; * law enforcement; * evidence and archiving; * electronic interaction between government, businesses and individuals; * the extent to which various information technologies discriminate against the less advantaged members of society; and * the new risks that computer and communication systems pose to life, health and economic well-being The Foundation will also provide a valuable resource for the press as it will be able to put journalists in touch with a wide range of experts who can explain IT issues as they arise. Contact: Caspar Bowden (Director of the Foundation) 0171 837 8706 Ross Anderson (Chair of the Foundation) 01223 334733 QUOTES The Director of the Foundation, Caspar Bowden, said: ``The IT policies (and failures) which the current government inherited, and the decisions which will be made by them in the future, will have far-reaching effects on who society's winners and losers will be. We have a duty to prevent technological innovation and development taking place at the expense of the poor, the old, the sick and the disabled. We believe that so long as we understand the social and policy implications of new technical innovations, we can make IT into a means to facilitate social inclusion. The Foundation's mission will be to achieve and to spread that understanding.'' The Managing Director of Microsoft UK, David Svendsen, said: ``It's important that we contribute to a broad and informed public discussion on these information society issues.'' The Chair of the Foundation, Ross Anderson of Cambridge University, said: ``We welcome this new source of funding for IT related research. An increase in the diversity of funding sources is almost always a good thing, and the Foundation will be particularly valuable as much of the available IT funding is directed to very short-term and narrowly technical agendas.'' NOTES (1) The press conference is at the "Scrambling for Safety" conference, at the Bloomsbury Theatre, University College, London. URL: (2) The Foundation's Director and full-time CEO, Caspar Bowden, has for the last three years been running Qualia, a consultancy business specialising in internet implementations. Before that he was a financial strategist with Goldman Sachs. He also researched IT and communications issues for Scientists for Labour. Its chair, Ross Anderson, is a faculty member at Cambridge University Computer Laboratory and has done extensive research on topics related to electronic commerce. BACKGROUND The "Millennium Bug" - the problem that many computers cannot deal correctly with the date roll-over from 1999 to 2000 - threatens to cause havoc with many systems and has been declared a national emergency by the Prime Minister. Another problem that has worried policymakers and concerned citizens is that new developments in IT may discriminate against the less well off members of society. For example, the current mechanisms for electronic commerce depend on consumers using their credit cards to order goods and services over the net. They often get a big discount for buying this way; but people without credit cards may lose out. The first task that the Foundation has set itself is to examine the underpinnings of electronic commerce. The European Commission has recently published a draft Directive on this subject and will launch a period of public consultation at the same conference at which the Foundation itself will be launched. (The draft directive is at [missing].) Other topics which the Foundation plans to investigate include: * the maintenance of public records in electronic form. We do not fully understand how to ensure that word processor files and other electronic documents created today can be safely stored for many years, and reliably made available in the future. This affects not just the new Freedom of Information Act, but also the work of future librarians and historians. * the development of copyright law. There are some industry proposals which would restrict the ability of libraries to lend out digital works. Will this mean the end of the public library, as more and more books, videos and other material become digital? What are the implications for schools and universities? What are the implications for the public, if all major sports events in future are pay-per-view? Are these developments inevitable, or is there something we can do about them? * the introduction of electronic communication between the citizen and the government has the potential to cut queues and the frustration of dealing with people on the phone. However, are these changes intrinsically more likely to favour the articulate, and to bring the most benefit to well-off people with their own computers? What technical developments are reasonably possible to ensure that all citizens get a fair deal? * the previous government's proposal for a "personal signature card" that would give access to all government services had a distinct flavour of an ID card.

I need a compiler!
by one4evil＠juno.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Cypherpunks, Tis I, D, again...I just have one other question...Could some of you tell me what C compilers you use...Also, could you just tell me every program you would have that has anything to do with crypto if you had the cash? I guess one would need a C compiler, a hex editer maybe, are there any crypto programs that are sort of like templates, where you set the paramiters and the program compiles the encryption for you...Pipe dream I am sure... That is about it... D. _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

KeyNote v0.1 Release Announcement
by Angelos D. Keromytis 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- To: coderpunks(a)toad.com Subject: KeyNote v0.1 Release Announcement Cc: cypherpunks(a)toad.com Date: 06/01/98, 15:56:45 KeyNote is a trust-management system, designed on the same principles as PolicyMaker, but simpler and better-defined. This is the first public release, and although the code has been tested, it is by no means guaranteed bug-free (but then, what is). That said, you can get a copy from http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~angelos/keynote-0.1.tar.gz -Angelos PS. From the README file: There should be a real README file here, but in the meantime read draft-angelos-spki-keynote-01.txt for the spec of KeyNote. There's much to be done yet to improve the user interface(s). Signature verification is (deliberately) missing from this release, but the next one will have it. The hooks are obvious in the code (search for XXX in parse_assertion.c). The makefile creates the libkeynote.a library which can be linked with other applications. The program keynote-verify can be used to verify a request, given a set of assertions and an environment. There will be a man page in the next release both for the library and the program, along with some sort of graphical UI to make assertion generation (including signing) easier. For any questions, comments, bug reports, praise, or anything else you have in mind, contact me at angelos(a)dsl.cis.upenn.edu Angelos D. Keromytis May 31 1998 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.4, an Emacs/PGP interface iQCVAwUBNXMHfr0pBjh2h1kFAQElOgP9FyKPDQPvctQyJLl5djz4xj/edgRgQrlb YmqwVQqGrKKC/KrgUbu/A6c/RyqT1l1/nk9U4pONQaJoAtT0pQcgpYISQ2Ji/0JY tG8y+r+WqhWElgUuPxZff5jH5V3mbCDInKoe4BvkE0wwnW7QvwCSVa/nP/Ecs+1e KpiewSL6Ug8= =0f31 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Re: WinNT C2?
by Andrew White 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Versions are important, too... Quote from current Microsoft Web site... "<The NT 3.51 ITSEC> evaluation along with the US TCSEC class C2 evaluation completed in 1995 for Windows NT 3.5 demonstrates Microsoft's commitment to building a secure operating system and continuing to provide customers with assurance of its security characteristics based on these evaluations>" NT 4.0 has never passed ANY security evaluation. NT 3.51 passed a UK one in October 1996, NT 3.5 passed C2 in 1995. Both these earlier versions are effectively unusable due to diverse and numerous bugs unrelated to security, and both the evaulations were without a network card. Later, Andrew.

Echelon Furor
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

The UK Sunday Times on the Internet had a story yesterday on the rising Echelon furor in Europe, "Spy Station F83." http://www.sunday-times.co.uk (see Focus feature) If you don't want to register we've mirrored the piece: http://jya.com/nsa-f83.htm It reviews the rapidly-growing NSA operation at Menwith Hill and Bad Aibling, with some recent information not covered in earlier reports. Several European pols -- German, French, Italian, et al -- are calling for investigations of alleged economic spying by NSA. NSA denies all, the writers say, except the Agency claims it's the best in the world at what it's capable of but not doing.

I mean what is the argument here? Also, you keep putting things in here like: > uberl33t > k-rad > /<-rad Well, what the hell is up with that...I don't talk like that...Do you talk like that?

I don't know why we are bitching at each other...You hack, I don't, you use jargon, I don't, I can spell and type, you can't...Where is the problem? Anyone back me up on this?

refrigerator magnet
by bill payne 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Monday 6/1/98 6:05 PM Masanori I put the refrigerator magnet 1945 509th COMPOSITE GROUP 1995 FIRST ATOMIC BOMBARDMENT 50th ANNIVERSARY in the mail to you today. Reason I sent the magnet is to show THAT THERE ARE SOME REALLY-SICK MINDS [see reverse side of magnet] IN POWER in the US. Just got off the phone with John Young. Governments, including Japan, TRY to mess with peoples' minds. There is a book on this. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/quicksearch-query/002-2147604-1106833 But I have a solution. I do not read e-mail. At this time. I also believe in what Kahn wrote Thursday, March 20, 1980, 09:30 David Kahn addressed Congress, the Committee on Government Operations. Kahn stated to the committee, A final benefit is that refusing to restrict cryptologic studies erects yet another rampart against the chipping away of American liberties. Is this rampart, again, worth the danger to national security? Yes, because the danger is not as acute as the N.S.A. wishes people to see it. N.S.A. wants people to think that publication of cryptologic material would slam shut its window into the Third World countries. In fact such publication has little effect ... The national security dangers are not so great as to dismantle individual freedom. For all of these reasons, then, no limitation should be placed on the study of cryptology. And beyond them all lies something more fundamental, in the end, will probably prevent any restrictions anyway. It is called the First Amendment. I thank you. I hope you see that I am using the seventh amendment. http://www.jya.com/whp052898.htm And even more adamantly I believe For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul.

Ok, I was just going through Phrack 51again and found this...I don't know if you people care or are seeing it for the 51 time, but if you want the whole thing, e-mail me or just go do a search for Phrack and look at there archives...There is a lot more to the artical, but this little bit lets you know what it is about. D. ---[ Phrack Magazine Volume 7, Issue 51 September 01, 1997, article 13 of 17 -------------------------[ Monoalphabetic Cryptanalysis (Cyphers, Part One) --------[ Jeff Thompson aka 'Mythrandir' <jwthomp(a)cu-online.com> Written for Phrack and completed on Sunday, August 31st, 1997. --------- First a quick hello to all of those I met at DefCon this year. It was incredible fun to finally put faces to many of the people I have been talking with for some time. It was truly was a treat to meet so many others who are alive with the spirit of discovery. ---------- This is the first in a series of articles on Cryptology that I am writing. The goals of these articles will be to attempt to convey some of the excitement and fun of cyphers. A topic of much discussion in regards to cryptography currently, is about computer based cyphers such as DES, RSA, and the PGP implementation. I will not be discussing these. Rather, these articles will cover what I will term classical cryptology. Or cryptology as it existed before fast number crunching machines came into existance. These are the sorts of cyphers which interested cryptographers throughout time and continue to be found even to this very day. Even today, companies are producing software whose encryption methods are attackable. You will find these commonly among password protection schemes for software programs. Through the course of these articles I will explain in practical terms several common cypher types and various implementations of them as well as cryptanalytic techniques for breaking these cyphers. Creating cyphers is fun and all, but the real excitement and often times tedium is found in Cryptanalysis. Many of the ideas presented in these articles will based on three sources. The following two books: The Codebreakers by David Kahn (ISBN: 0-684-83130-9) and Decrypted Secrets by F.L. Bauer (ISBN: 3-540-60418-9). Both authors have put together wonderful books which both cover the history and methods of Cryptology. Do yourself and the authors a favor and purchase these books. You will be very pleased with the lot. Finally, a miniscule amount of these articles will be written based on my own personal experience. The fun is in the journey and I welcome you on what is certain to be an interesting trip. Please feel free to raise questions, engage me in discussions, correct me, or simply offer suggestions at jwthomp(a)cu-online.com. Please be patient with me as I am traveling extensively currently, and may be away from the computer at length occasionally. Out the door and into the wild... --Monoalphabetic Cyphers Monoalphabetic cyphers are often currently found in simple cryptograms in books and magazines. These are just simple substitution cyphers. This does not mean that they are always simple for the beginning amateur to solve. Three common monoalphabetic cyphers which are used are substitution, cyclical, and keyed cyphers. -Substitution Cyphers By taking an alphabet and replacing each letter with another letter in a unique fashion you create a simple monoalphabetic cypher. Plaintext Alphabet A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Cypher Alphabet Z I K M O Q S U W Y A C E B D F H J L N P R T V X G Plaintext Message The blue cow will rise during the second moon from the west field. Cyphertext Message nuo icpo kdt twcc jwlo mpjwbs nuo lokdbm eddb qjde nuo toln qwocm. -Cyclical Cyphers By taking an alphabet and aligning it with a rotated alphabet you get a cyclical cypher. For example: Plaintext Alphabet A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Cypher Alphabet N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z A B C D E F G H I J K L M Indeed, you may recognize this cypher as a ROT13 which is commonly used on news groups to obscure messages. -Keyed Cypher Another way to create a monoalphabetic cypher is to choose a keyword or phrase as the beginning of the cypher alphabet. Usually, only the unique letters from the phrase are used in order to make sure the plaintext to cyphertext behaves in a one to one fashion. For example: Plaintext Alphabet: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Cypher Alphabet L E T O S H D G F W A R B C I J K M N P Q U V X Y Z The passphrase in this cypher is "Let loose the dogs of war" The advantage of such a system is that the encryption method is easy to remember. Also, a method of key change can be created without ever having to distribute the keys. For example, one could use the 4 words at a time of some piece of literature. Every message could use the next four words. Indeed, this change could occur more frequently, but that is a subject for another article. _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Dr. Abdul Qadeer Friday 5/15/1998 Albuquerque Journal, Universal Press Syndicate, Syndicated Columnist Richard Reeves writes U.S. Indignation at Indias Nuclear Testing Hypocritical London - So, India has conducted its second test of a nuclear weapon, and its third, fourth, and fist and sixth, in the past few days. That put it 1,026 tests behind the United States. ... This has been coming for a long, time - and we have been foolish or deliberately looking the wrong way for decades. Fifteen years ago, in 1983, we the Reeves family, were living in the district called E-7, the best neighborhood in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan. (My wife was doing work involving refugee camps in the northwest of the country, across the border from the Afghan-Soviet war.) Like everyone else around there, including American diplomats, we knew why military car arrived each morning to take the fellow around the corer, Abdel Qadeer Kahn, to his office - or laboratory. Kahn was in charge of building the bomb out in the Pakistani desert at a place called Kahuta. This was the so-called Islamic bomb ready for use against India, which had conducted its first test in 1974. Whatever we though, Pakistanis believed nuclear weapons were essential to checkmate the change of being overwhelmed by India., their 10-time-as-big neighbor. ... Small world.

Tax revolt book
by Christopher Turner 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

C-punks, my apologies if this book was discussed on the list back when it first came out... in the course of cleaning up and packing in preparation for our move, I came across Bill Branon's first book, _Let Us Prey_. W/out going into any detail, the backdrop of the book takes place in present-day America where a sort of tax revolt is going on - over 1/3 of the taxpayers filed a Form 4868 - an automatic extension form - and 22% of those filers failed to enclose a check of any kind. There's a great part where the prez is freaking out because 1/3 of Americans are getting a gov't check of some kind and where the hell are they going to get the money when over another 1/3 of Americans won't pay their taxes. I highly recommend it. Take care all, and watch your six, Chris --- Ubi dubium ibi libertas Where there is doubt, there is freedom -Latin proverb

Reeves 5/15/98 conclusion
by bill payne 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Sunday 5/31/98 7:03 PM Orlin I erred by not transcribing Reeve's conclusion in his Friday 5/15/1998 Albuquerque Journal editorial Our policy is not stupid. It's hypocritical and delusionary, but not stupid. What was stupid was to actually believe that countries like India, Pakistan, China, and Iran and Israel, too, would act on American words and illusions rather than on their own national interests and fears. This American blunder of intelligence and intellect is not another inside-the-beltway, Ken-and-Monica joke. This is an affair of state, a failure of state. Officials should not be subpoenaed or mocked; they should resign or be fired. Let ALL hope for release of the documents requested at http://www.jya.com/whp052898.htm and peaceful settlement of another American blunder of intelligence. Later bill

I hope you see that I am using the seventh amendment. http://www.jya.com/whp052898.htm And even more adamantly I believe For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul.

Pauline Hanson's speech in parliament
by Global Web Builders 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

G'day, The media are once again blatantly misrepresenting the issues that Pauline Hanson raised in parliament yesterday. We would invite you to see for yourself a verbatim transcript of what she said and view direct links to the ATSIC and UN home pages which confirm her concerns on the issues raised such as the planned "formation of independent Aboriginal states" in Australia. View: http://www.gwb.com.au/un.html Be informed! Do not believe the lies the media tell. Please print out her speech and distribute it freely. GWB Scott Balson

Last Call For Participation - RAID 98
by dac＠zurich.ibm.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Last Call For Participation - RAID 98 (also available at http://www.zurich.ibm.com/~dac/RAID98) First International Workshop on the Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection September 14-15, 1998 Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium We solicit your participation in the first International Workshop on the Recent Advances in Intrusion Detection (RAID 98). This workshop, the first in an anticipated annual series, will bring together leading figures from academia, government, and industry to talk about the current state of intrusion detection technologies and paradigms from the research and commercial perspectives. Research into and development of automated intrusion detection systems (IDS) has been under way for nearly 10 years. By now a number of systems have been deployed in the commercial or government arenas, but all are limited in what they do. At the same time, the numerous research and prototype systems developed have been more engineering than scientific efforts, with scant quantitative performance figures. As we survey the field of automated intrusion detection, we are faced with many questions: 1. What research questions have yet to be answered (or even asked) about IDS? 2. What are the open challenges, limitations, and fundamental concerns about present intrusion detection methodologies? 3. What metrics can we use to measure IDS performance and thus compare different systems and methodologies? These measurements should highlight the successes and expose the limitations of current IDS approaches. 4. What factors are inhibiting transfer of research ideas into functional deployed systems? How can those be addressed? 5. What is the role of a deployed IDS? How should or can it fit in with other security systems? 6. What are the typical IDS operating environments? What can be done to configure IDS to unique operating environments? 7. What are the challenges for IDS in very large environments, such as the Internet? 8. Is it time to contemplate IDS standards? What are the advantages and disadvantages of standardizing components of IDS? What forums (e.g., IETF, ISO) would be appropriate for pursuing such standards? 9. What are the problems of turning the results of intrusion detection tools into legally reliable evidence? What are the problems of admissibility and of courtroom presentation? We invite proposals and panels that explore these questions or any other aspect of automated intrusion detection. We especially solicit proposals and panels that address: 1. New results related to intrusion detection methodologies and technologies. 2. Innovative ways of thinking about intrusion detection; for example, the applicability of R&D in the fields of survivable and/or dependable systems, data mining, etc. 3. User experiences and lessons learned from fielded intrusion detection systems. 4. IDS for emerging computer environments (e.g., Java, CORBA, and NT). 5. Commercial intrusion detection systems. We have scheduled RAID 98 immediately before ESORICS 98, at the same time as CARDIS 98, and at the same location as both of these conferences. This provides a unique opportunity for the members of these distinct, yet related, communities to participate in all these events and meet and share ideas during joined organized external events.

CARDIS 98: smart card research
by Jean-Jacques Quisquater 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

CARDIS Conference Announcement Final Call for Papers and Panels ------------------------------------------------------------- THIRD SMART CARD RESEARCH AND ADVANCED APPLICATION CONFERENCE SEPTEMBER 14-16, 1998 UCL, LOUVAIN-LA-NEUVE, BELGIUM ------------------------------------------------------------ Aims and Goals Smart cards, or IC cards, offer a huge potential for information processing purposes. The portability and processing power of IC cards allow for highly secure conditional access and reliable distributed information systems. There are IC cards available that can perform highly sophisticated cryptographic computations. The applicability of IC cards is currently limited mainly by our imagination; the information processing power that can be gained by using IC cards remains as yet mostly untapped and is not well understood. Here lies a vast uncovered research area which we are only beginning to assess, and which will have a great impact on the eventual success of the technology. The research challenges range from electrical engineering on the hardware side to tailor-made cryptographic applications on the software side, and their synergies. Many currently existing events are mainly devoted to commercial and application aspects of IC cards. In contrast, the CARDIS conferences aim to bring together researchers who are active in all aspects of the design of IC cards and related devices and environments, such as to stimulate synergy between different research communities and to offer a platform for presenting the latest research advances. CARDIS 1994, sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), held in November 1994 in Lille, France, successfully brought together representatives from leading IC research centers from all over the world. CARDIS 1996 was the second occasion for the IC card community in this permanent activity. CARDIS 1996 was organized jointly by the Centre for Mathematics and Computer Science at Amsterdam (CWI) and the Department of Logic and Computer Science of the University of Amsterdam (UvA). Organization General Chair Catherine Rouyer (UCL, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium) Program Chairs Jean-Jacques Quisquater (UCL, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium) Bruce Schneier (Counterpane, USA) Program Committee (in construction) William Caelli (QUT, Brisbane, Australia) Vincent Cordonnier (R2DP, Lille, France) David Chan (HP Labs, Bristol, UK) Jean-François Dhem (Belgacom, Belgium) J. Eloff (RAU, South Africa) Marc Girault (CNET, France) Louis Guillou (CNET, France) Pieter Hartel (Southampton, UK and Amsterdam, The Netherlands) Peter Honeyman (Michigan U., USA) Pierre Paradinas (Gemplus, France) Qiang (Acad. Sciences, Beijing, China) Michel Ugon (Bull CP-8, France) Doug Tygar (Carnegie-Mellon Univ., USA) Anthony Watson (ECU, Perth, Australia) Wijang Zhang (Shangai, China) Steering Committee Chair Vincent Cordonnier (Rd2p, Lille, France) Local Organization Catherine Rouyer (UCL) Benoit Macq (UCL) SUBMISSIONS Submissions will be judged on relevance, originality, significance, correctness, and clarity. Each paper should explain its contribution in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, saying why it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. Authors should make every effort to make the technical content of their papers understandable to a broad audience. Papers should be written in English. Working papers, research in progress are welcome. Authors should submit: an extended abstract (more or less 5 pages) either by email to jjq(a)dice.ucl.ac.be (we prefer the electronic submission) using one of the following formats: postscript, rtf, latex or word 6. or send 12 copies of the paper to Jean-Jacques Quisquater UCL/DICE Place du Levant, 3 B-1348 Louvain-la-Neuve Belgium The paper should be formatted using the LNCS format from Springer-Verlag, if possible. In any case, each paper should be accompanied by information submitted via email to jjq(a)dice.ucl.ac.be that consists of: * a single postal address and electronic mail address for communication * complete title, author and affiliation information * the abstract of the paper * a small selection of the keywords that appear on this call for papers, which best describes the contribution of the paper Preproceedings will be available at the conference. It is intended to publish the proceedings in the Springer-Verlag LNCS series. Authors of accepted papers may be expected to sign a copyright release form.

RE: DNA sequencing info needed
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

It's now a cliche of bio-terrorism bellringers that "this stuff scares me silly," with scientists, pols and first responders now comically repeating the code. A technological artist on Long Island has set up in his studio a collection of the most deadly germs known on earth, in a small glass display, with labels and descriptions of what they are and can do: dosages, kill ratios, distribution methods, sources of specimens and food supplies, URLs for bio-terrorists. He invites art connoisseurs to visit. They walk around the room looking for the show, see little except typical suburban living room furniture, then spy the glass tank, approach, read, freeze, then begin to tremble. Some scream, some faint, some vomit in horror, claw clothing, stampede for the exit. The artist tries to reassure them it's only a carefully constructed simulation. None believe him. They shiver outside in the yard and whimper accusations of terrorism, which, he confesses, is the truth of bio-terrorism, to scare sane people silly.

My knowledge of NSA 'deficient' crypto algorithms
by bill payne 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Wednesday 6/3/98 10:55 AM jensul So as not to misspell J[G]en[n]ifer. You might be interested to look at the University of Southern California home page on the gfsr. My co-author Lewis was one of my former ms and phd students. NSA's crypto algorithms are okay - for hardware implementation - but are classified, in my opinion, to possibly hide embarrassment. Some of us at Sandia offered to help NSA fix its 'deficient' crypto algorithms. For money, of course. It is EASY to make a BLUNDER in crypto. For theoretical or implementation reasons. NSA knows this too. And is pretty cautious about what it does. I partially read another crypto-related article at http://www.news.com/News/Item/0%2C4%2C22705%2C00.html?st.ne.fd.gif.j Best bill Subject: Marc Dacier Date: Wed, 03 Jun 1998 07:34:04 -0600 From: bill payne <billp(a)nmol.com> To: jy(a)jya.com CC: dac(a)zurich.ibm.com, kaj(a)lanl.gov Wednesday 6/3/98 7:25 AM John Young I looked at http://www.zurich.ibm.com/~dac/RAID98 I was in Marc Dacier's (IBM Zurich Research Laboratory, Switzerland) office last April in Zurich. Dacier was quizzing me about what the US was concerned about, secuity-wise, inside weapons systems. Spiking, of course. And it was so nice to learn only yesterday that USC has a home page something I thought-up. http://www-hto.usc.edu/software/seqaln/doc/html/gfsr.3.html I SURE UNDERSTOOD the algorithms behind the NSA KG schematics Brian Snow showed me. Let's continue to hope for prompt settlement of the unfortunate matter BEFORE things get WORSE. And we can all get onto better and hopefully less destructive, http://www.aci.net/kalliste/, endeavors.

[E-WRESTLING] New fed that's superior to all others ...
by SMODeLUX＠aol.com 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

b r u t e f o r c e w r e s t l i n g . ............................................................ BFW HANDBOOK Last Revised: 4.22.98 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- BFW INTRODUCTION: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Screw organization with those "preppy handbooks," Screw the weenies that take e-Wrestling seriously, and screw the critics. Do you think you're a tough guy? Are you _brutal_? Are you sure? You can't be sure unless you strut your stuff in the paragon of e-Wrestling fun, the BFW (Brute Force Wrestling). We don't really care what all the other fed heads think, and we're going to approach this federation a little differently. No longer will you see the 20k BORING as hell matches, we're going to keep them short, with the occasional overdrive. Now let me ask you, do you REALLY see 55 minute matches on regular broadcasts such as RAW or Nitro? I don't. Maybe on a PPV, but we'll stretch our matches on PPVs a little. Anywhoo, what will this short match process result in? Fewer late cards, I know you all love that. What else will make this fed fun? We'll give magazines instead of updates, updates usually just have the same stuff anyway. In fact, I always skip to the rankings when I read an update. We'll show you a good product with our magazine. In-depth articles, and must-read writing. Do you think you're up for it? If so, fill out this application form, but remember, we can only fit 20 singles wrestler's and 10 tags on our roster. But beware... those who enter shall never leave... for they will be engulfed in fun and excitement, and they'll never even shed the thought of leaving! Thanks, Sean and Chris -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- BFW ROLEPLAYING: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- BFW is a booked wrestling league, meaning that you roleplay to win matches. We do not use TNM, WLS, or any other simulator. All matches are hand written for the most exciting action anywhere. The only rule for roleplaying is that you must do it often. If you don't roleplay for a month, you're history. We may keep you around as a scrub and job the hell out of you, ruining your reputation. We may also just kick you out of the fed completely. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- BFW SPECIFICS: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Headquarters: BFW Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah Cards: House shows (Quick Result Report sent out weekly) Tuesday's televised show, BFW Tuesday Tap-Out Friday's televised show, BFW Friday Fright Night Monthly Pay-Per-View events Titles: BFW World Heavy-Weight Champion BFW World Tag Team Champions BFW Network Champion -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- BFW APPLICATION -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ======================== YOUR INFORMATION: Hey, we can get to know ya. ======================== YOUR NAME - YOUR AGE - (optional) ======================== WRESTLER'S INFORMATION: Duh! ======================== WRESTLER'S NAME - ALLIGNMENT - (heel/face/neutral) WRESTLER'S HEIGHT - (nothing above 7", please) WRESTLER'S WEIGHT - (nothing extraordinary here, either) WRESTLER'S LOOKS - (breif description here. Add in attire) WRESTLER'S HISTORY - (Who, what, where, why, when?) TWENTY MOVES YOUR WRESTLER APPLIES - YOUR WRESTLER'S FINISHING MANEUVER - DESCRIBE IT - (it doesn't have to be TOO complex) YOUR WRESTLER'S MANAGER - (optional) YOUR WRESTLER'S THEME MUSIC - (nothing other than music done by real musicians, no real wrestler music) ======================== TAG TEAM INFORMATION (Optional) ======================== NAME OF TAG TEAM - WHO DOES HE TAG WITH? - TAG TEAM FINISHER - DESCRIBE IT -

Now that Network General and Network Associates (McAfee) have merged (business wise aswell as buildings), I was wondering where the CypherPunks meetings are going to be at the old netgen building or the new (BIG) Network Associates (netass.com) building? And is it still gonna be at 12 on the second saturday of the month? (seeing as this saturday(first) is the NAI company picnic). And, has anyone here played with PGP 6.0 (still in developement). I hope they do more changes in the final, Photo ID's and the misc other changes.

Fwd: NEWS - NRA Charles Heston speech
by Jean-Francois Avon 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

==================BEGIN FORWARDED MESSAGE================== >Date: Fri, 05 Jun 1998 09:50:22 +0930 >From: SSAA <Sporting.Shooters.Association(a)adelaide.on.net> >Subject: NEWS - NRA Charles Heston speech >Organization: Sporting Shooters Association of Australia Speech by National Rifle Association First Vice President Charlton Heston Delivered at the Free Congress Foundation's 20th Anniversary Gala December 7, 1997 I like it when the party of Lincoln honors our free heritage. This nation has been blessed by the minds and mettle of many good people, and indeed Abe was among the best. A man of great moral character... a trait often lacking among our leaders. This is disturbing, but not without remedy. One good election can correct such ills. Above all, I hope those of us gathered here tonight have more in common with Mr. Lincoln than just party affiliation. Better that we grasp a common vision than simply wear the cloak. Even our President pretends to be a conservative when it suits him. We must be more than that. I know, I know... it is not easy. Imagine being point man for the National Rifle Association, preserving the right to keep and bear arms. Well, I ran for office, I was elected, and now I serve... as a moving target for pundits who've called me everything from "ridiculous" and "duped" to a "brain-injured, senile, crazy old man." Well, I guess that goes with the territory. But as I've stood in the cross hairs of those who aim at Second Amendment freedom, I've realized that guns are not the only issue, and I am not the only target. It is much, much bigger than that which is what I want to talk to you about. I have come to realize that a cultural war is raging across our land... storming our values, assaulting our freedoms, killing our self-confidence in who we are and what we believe, where we come from. How many of you here own a gun? A show of hands? How many own two or more guns? Thank you. I wonder how many of you in this room own guns but chose not to raise your hand? How many of you considered revealing your conviction about a constitutional right, but then thought better of it? Then you are a victim of the cultural war. You are a casualty of the cultural warfare being waged against traditional American freedom of beliefs and ideas. Now maybe you don't care one way or the other about owning a gun. But I could've asked for a show of hands on Pentecostal Christians, or pro-lifers, or right-to-workers, or Promise Keepers, or school voucher-ers, and the result would be the same. What if the same question were asked at your PTA meeting? Would you raise your hand if Dan Rather were in the back of the room there with a film crew? See? Good. Still, if you didn't, you have been assaulted and robbed of the courage of your convictions. Your pride in who you are, and what you believe, has been ridiculed, ransacked, plundered. It may be a war without bullet or bloodshed, but with just as much liberty lost: You and your country are less free. And you are not inconsequential people! You in this room, whom many would say are among the most powerful people on earth, you are shamed into silence! Because you embrace a view at odds with the cultural warlords. If that is the outcome of cultural war, and you are the victims, I can only ask the gravely obvious question: What'll become of the right itself? Or other rights not deemed acceptable by the thought police? What other truth in your heart will you disavow with your hand? I remember when European Jews feared to admit their faith. The Nazis forced them to wear six-pointed yellow stars sewn on their chests as identity badges. It worked. So what color star will they pin on our coats? How will the self- styled elite tag us? There may not be a Gestapo officer on every street corner yet, but the influence on our culture is just as pervasive. Now, I am not really here to talk about the Second Amendment or the NRA, but the gun issue clearly brings into focus the war that's going on. Rank-and-file Americans wake up every morning, increasingly bewildered and confused at why their views make them lesser citizens. After enough breakfast- table TV promos hyping tattooed sex-slaves on the next Rikki Lake show, enough gun-glutted movies and tabloid talk shows, enough revisionist history books and prime-time ridicule of religion, enough of the TV anchor who cocks her pretty head, clucks her tongue and sighs about guns causing crime and finally the message gets through: Heaven help the God-fearing, law-abiding, Caucasian, middle class, Protestant, or even worse Evangelical Christian, Midwest, or Southern, or even worse rural, apparently straight, or even worse admittedly heterosexual, gun-owning or even worse NRA-card-carrying, average working stiff, or even worse male working stiff, because not only don't you count, you're a downright obstacle to social progress. Your tax dollars may be just as delightfully green as you hand them over, but your voice requires a lower decibel level, your opinion is less enlightened, your media access is insignificant, and frankly mister, you need to wake up, wise up and learn a little something about your new America...in fact, why don't you just sit down and shut up? That's why you don't raise your hand. That's how cultural war works. And you are losing. That's what happens when a generation of media, educators, entertainers and politicians, led by a willing president, decide the America they were born into isn't good enough any more. So they contrive to change it through the cultural warfare of class distinction. Ask the Romans if powerful nations have ever fallen as a result of cultural division. There are ruins around the world that were once the smug centers of small-minded, arrogant elitism. It appears that rather than evaporate in the flash of a split atom, we may succumb to a divided culture. Although my years are long, I was not on hand to help pen the Bill of Rights. And popular assumptions aside, the same goes for the Ten Commandments. Yet as an American and as a man who believes in God's almighty power, I treasure both. The Constitution was handed down to guide us by a bunch of those wise old dead white guys who invented this country. Now, some flinch when I say that. Why? It's true...they were white guys. So were most of the guys who died in Lincoln's name opposing slavery in the 1860s. So why should I be ashamed of white guys? Why is "Hispanic pride" or "black pride" a good thing, while "white pride" conjures up shaved heads and white hoods? Why was the Million Man March on Washington celebrated in the media as progress, while the Promise Keepers March on Washington was greeted with suspicion and ridicule? I'll tell you why: Cultural warfare. Now, Chuck Heston can get away with saying I'm proud of those wise old dead white guys because Jesse Jackson and Louie Farrakhan know I fought in their cultural war. I was one of the first white soldiers in the civil rights movement in 1961, long before it was fashionable in Hollywood believe me or in Washington for that matter. In 1963 I marched on Washington with Dr. Martin Luther King to uphold the Bill of Rights. I'm very proud of that. As vice- president of the NRA I am doing the same thing. But you don't see many other Hollywood luminaries speaking out on this one, do you? It's not because there aren't any. It's because they can't afford the heat. They dare not speak up for fear of CNN or the IRS or SAG or the ATF or NBC or even W-J-C. It saps the strength of our country when the personal price is simply too high to stand up for what you believe in. Today, speaking with the courage of your conviction can be so costly, the price of principle so high, that legislators won't lead so citizens can't follow, and so there is no army to fight back. That's cultural warfare. For instance: It's plain that our Constitution guarantees law-abiding citizens the right to own a firearm. But if I stand up and say so, why does the media assault me with such a slashing, sinister brand of derision filled with hate? Because Bill Clinton's cultural warriors want a penitent cleansing of firearms, as if millions of lawful gun owners should genuflect in shame and seek absolution by surrendering their guns. That's what is now literally happening in England and Australia, of course. Lines long lines of submissive citizens, threatened with imprisonment, are bitterly, reluctantly surrendering family heirlooms, guns that won their freedom, to the blast furnace. If that fact doesn't unsettle you, then you are already anesthetized, a ready victim of the cultural war. You know, I think, that I stand first in line in defense of free speech. But those who speak against the perverted and profane should be given as much due as those who profit by it. You also know I welcome cultural diversity. But those who choose to live on the fringe should not tear apart the seams that secure the fabric of our society. Now I've earned a fine and rewarding living in the motion picture industry, yet increasingly I find myself embarrassed by the dearth of conscience that drives the world's most influential art form. And I'm an example of what a lonely undertaking that can be. Nobody opposed the obscene rapper Ice-T until I stood at Time-Warner's stockholders meeting and was ridiculed by its president for wanting to take the floor to read Ice-T's lyrics. Since I held several hundred shares of stock he had no choice, though the media were barred. I read those lyrics to a stunned audience of average American people the stockholders who were shocked at the lyrics that advocating killing cops, sexually abusing women, and raping the nieces of our Vice-President. True, the good guys won that time though: Time-Warner fired Ice-T. The gay and lesbian movement is another good example. Many homosexuals are hugely talented artists and executives... also dear friends. I don't despise their lifestyle, though I don't share it. As long as gay and lesbian Americans are as productive, law-abiding and private as the rest of us, I think America owes them absolute tolerance. It's the right thing to do. But on the other hand, I find my blood pressure rising when Clinton's cultural shock troops participate in homosexual-rights fund-raisers but boycott gun- rights fund-raisers... and then claim it's time to place homosexual men in tents with Boy Scouts, and suggest that sperm donor babies born into lesbian relationships are somehow better served and more loved. Such demands have nothing to do with equality. They're about the currency of cultural war money and votes and the Clinton camp will let anyone in the tent if there's a donkey on his hat, or a check in the mail or some yen in the fortune cookie. Mainstream America is depending on you counting on you to draw your sword and fight for them. These people have precious little time or resources to battle misguided Cinderella attitudes, the fringe propaganda of the homosexual coalition, the feminists who preach that it's a divine duty for women to hate men, blacks who raise a militant fist with one hand while they seek preference with the other, and all the New-Age apologists for juvenile crime, who see roving gangs as a means of youthful expression, sex as a means of adolescent merchandising, violence as a form of entertainment for impressionable minds, and gun bans as a means to lord-knows-what. We've reached that point in time when our national social policy originates on Oprah. I say it's time to pull the plug. Americans should not have to go to war every morning for their values. They already go to war for their families. They fight to hold down a job, raise responsible kids, make their payments, keep gas in the car, put food on the table and clothes on their backs, and still save a little for their final days in dignity. They prefer the America they built - where you could pray without feeling naive, love without being kinky, sing without profanity, be white without feeling guilty, own a gun without shame, and raise your hand without apology. They are the critical masses who find themselves under siege and are long for you to get some guts, stand on principle and lead them to victory in this cultural war. Now all this sounds a little Mosaic, the punch-line of my sermon is as elementary as the Golden Rule. In a cultural war, triumph belongs to those who arm themselves with pride in who they are and then do the right thing. Not the most expedient thing, not the politically correct thing, not what'll sell, but the right thing. And you know what? Everybody already knows what the right thing is. You, and I, President Clinton, even Ice-T, we all know. It's easy. You say wait a minute, you take a long look in the mirror, then into the eyes of your kids, your grandchildren, and you'll know what's right. Don't run for cover when the cultural cannons roar. Remember who you are and what you believe, and then raise your hand, stand up, and speak out. Don't be shamed or startled into lockstep conformity by seemingly powerful people. The maintenance of a free nation is a long, slow, steady process. And it is in your hands. Yes, we can have rules and still have rebels that's democracy. But as leaders you must we must do as Lincoln would do, confronted with the stench of cultural war: Do what's right. As Mr. Lincoln said, "With firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us finish the work we are in... and then we shall save our country." Defeat the criminals and their apologists, oust the biased and bigoted, endure the undisciplined and unprincipled, but disavow the self-appointed social engineers whose relentless arrogance fuels this vicious war against so much we hold so dear. Do not yield, do not divide, do not call a truce. Be fair, but fight back. It's the same blueprint our founding fathers left to guide us. Our enemies see it as the senile prattle of an archaic society. I still honor it as the United States Constitution, and that timeless document we call the Bill of Rights. Freedom is our fortune and honor is our saving grace. Thank you. ===================END FORWARDED MESSAGE=================== Jean-Francois Avon, B.Sc.
