(stock opened at $71, declined to $53ish, and now hovers at $58ish) He also explains where he thinks the price will go. http://www.enews.com/contrib/bagholders.html Second, Pat Robertson's "The 700 Club" now has a WWW site and on it he advertises a new video tape http://the700club.org/cbn/telethon.html where he predicts the end of the world. What has that got to do with "www-buyinfo"? Well, one segment is described as: "This story examines the oncoming rush to digital cash [...] and how quickly businesses, financial institutions, and even the government are moving in this direction." For those of you without a copy of Revelations handy, this is a Mark Of The Beast according to him. You'll have to buy the video to find out why.

GMT always stays the same and does not become British Summer Time (or whatever it is Brussels is making the UK call its time zone these days). Another general problem though is that Monday is August Bank Holiday in the UK. That might further delay UK office-based result reporting. Start day-of-the-week should be something like Tuesday.

EC Report on Crypto
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

4 August 1997, ComputerWorld: Report/ Encryption policy hurts trade U.S. controls on the export of encryption technology and telecommunications equipment represent significant barriers to international trade, the European Commission said in a report last week. The development of digital communications has prompted the need for improved protection against the unauthorized use of personal data, trade secrets, banking information and databases. Without that protection, it is unlikely that electronic commerce will take off, said one European Commission official. The commission's 13th annual ``Report on United States Barriers to Trade and Investment'' said the U.S. is the dominant supplier of key computing components, and the country's limitations on the export of strong encryption products hurts the growth of electronic commerce. ---------- Anyone with a URL for this report? The EC site is uncrackably multi-lingual otiose.

8-25-95. NYPaper: "C.I.A. Still in Dark on Spy's Damage." Eighteen months after the arrest of Aldrich H. Ames, Moscow's mole inside the Central Intelligence Agency, the agency has still not sounded the depths of the damage he did. The process of looking backward to reconstruct the past and understand the present -- the business of "walking back the cat," in espionage argot -- has proved immensely frustrating. Often he did not know the true names or roles of the people he betrayed. The Soviet (and later the Russian) intelligence services forced some of the men Mr. Ames betrayed to become pawns in a game of deception, using them to feed false information on some of those operations to the C.I.A. in an effort to mislead and mystify the agency. The C.I.A. became a laughing stock for the way in which it investigated itself once it knew its Soviet agents had been betrayed. 8-25-95. W$Japer: "Russia's Threat Beneath the Surface." Most elements of Russias's military arsenal are shrinking in numbers and effectiveness. Yet Russia is still completing construction of submarines begun in the Soviet era, on about the same timetable as the Soviets produced them. Recently, it laid the keel for an even more advanced submarine and will enter the next century with the largest nuclear submarine fleet in the world. That new Russian subs are so quiet is attributable in part to the skill of Russian scientists and engineers, in part to Western technology illicitly acquired, and in part to help from two convicted American spies, John Walker and Jerry Whitworth, who for many years sold U.S. secrets to the Soviet Union.

CLEAR Net - News Spy Base Expanded The Government has announced a planned expansion at Blenheim's Waihopai spybase to boost New Zealand's ability to monitor satellite communications. And the Prime Minister, Jim Bolger, says a change to the Crimes Act will allow the base to monitor phone calls by foreigners, which was formerly illegal.
