Oh, yes another guy to give it up so easily! Now look, why is it that you let these people tease me with Monica Lewinsky and kiddie porn, and then take them away from me just as quickly?! WHAT THE HELL KIND OF SERVICE ARE YOU RUNNING?!?!??! Don't you like kiddie porn? Don't you want to have sex with Monica, just like the prez? And you tell that cactus humper Christopher "I like little boys" Barkley to watch his caboose! The FBI are going to be after him like cheese on a stick when they find out that Mr. I Have Lotion In My Pants goes in for children-with-llamas bestiality like he does. What a maroon! Joe C.

RE: I don't care if this is real or not! But forwarding is not hard for me if I help
by GORDON, JEFFREY A 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

>From http://jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/021798/web217__.html Chain letter: Poor Timothy Flyte. He's dying of ostriopliosis of the liver and is urging Internet users to forward his electronic chain letter to everyone in their address books. The letter says a children's hospital will donate 7 cents to the National Disease Society for every person who forwards the letter. But wait: There is no such disease as ''ostriopliosis,'' there is no such thing as the National Disease Society and the name Timothy Flyte apparently was taken from Peter O'Toole's character in the movie Phantoms. At the end, the letter includes a threat to those who don't forward it that ''what goes around comes around.'' This piece of e-junk is a particularly loathsome example of Internet chain letters. If you receive this letter or any other electronic chain letter, do the world a favor: Delete it without forwarding it to anyone and inform the person who sent it to you that the letter is a hoax. For the full story on this letter, see The Mining Co.'s guide to urban legends. > -----Original Message----- > From: Chiu Ngan [SMTP:simpsonngan@hotmail.com] > Sent: Wednesday, September 16, 1998 4:52 AM > To: dueli(a)hotmail.com; centrebet(a)centrebet.com.au; contact(a)unsw.edu.au; > Declan(a)well.com; Dodwellleung(a)hotmail.com; dlin(a)gpu.srv.ualberta.ca; > dorngan(a)hkstar.com.hk; cypherpunks(a)toad.com; cj2802(a)singnet.com.sg; > parsley(a)unforgettable.com; S.Lundy(a)unsw.edu.au; accounts(a)magna.com.au; > n.harding(a)unsw.edu.au; philiph(a)magna.com.au; ulf(a)fitug.de; > leevv(a)hotmail.com; vanessa.ho(a)mailexcite.com > Subject: Fwd: I don't care if this is real or not!

US Crypto Update Fact Sheet

17 Dec '03

http://library.whitehouse.gov/PressReleases-plain.cgi?date=0&briefing=4 The White House Briefing Room September 16, 1998 FACT SHEET THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary ______________________________________________________________________ For Immediate Release September 16, 1998 FACT SHEET Administration Updates Encryption Policy Exports of 56-bit DES and equivalent products (hardware and software) will be streamlined (under license exception). Requirements for key recovery plans are eliminated. Exports of unlimited strength encryption products (with or without key recovery) will be streamlined (under license exception) to certain industries. The sectors are: Subsidiaries of U.S. Firms, worldwide (except seven terrorist nations). Insurance companies to the same 45 countries recently approved for exports to banks and financial institution exports. Health and medical organizations (including civilian government health agencies) in the same 45 countries. Does not include biochemical/pharmaceutical manufacturers. On-line merchants for client-server applications, in the same 45 countries, with the purpose of securing electronic transactions between merchants and their customers. Does not include manufacturers and distributors of items controlled on the U.S. munitions list. Key Recovery products will continue to be exportable under license exception worldwide (except seven terrorist nations). Review of foreign key recovery agents is eliminated. Exports of "recoverable" products will be approved to most commercial firms, and their wholly-owned subsidiaries, in a broad range of countries under encryption licensing arrangements. This group of countries covers most major commercial markets including Western Europe, Japan, and Australia. The policy does not include service providers and manufacturers and distributors of items controlled on the U.S. munitions list. Exports to end users or destinations outside this policy are possible on a case-by-case basis. Prior to export, products are subject to a one-time product technical review. # # #
