There we go, full circle to what started this whole thread. And quite well put.

And we don't want those. I think. 1 am on a Saturday, and it's really confusing.

Income Tax Newsletter - May
by TaxBuster Guide 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

The newsletter this month got so long that I decided to put it up on the web rather then send it out this way. It is an in-depth article on the history of the Federal Income Tax. For anyone with an interest in reducing taxation, it is worth a read. http://FutureGate.com/tax_buster/history1.html Best Regards, Jon _________________________________________________________________ Also, there may have been some REMOVE requests that I did not receive in April, if you are one of those, or, you would like to be removed at this time, just hit reply and send. You will be automatically placed in a permanent REMOVE file.

We offer a paper distributed at the recent NYC crypto forum, "Private Groups and Public Policy: Cryptography and the National Research Council," by Kenneth Dam, professor of law at the University of Chicago, a panelist at the forum, and chair of the NRC panel which produced the report "Cryptography's Role in Securing the Information Society," May, 1996. http://jya.com/damrole.htm (63K) Professor Dam recounts the impact of the NRC report on the Administration's encryption policy as an example of how private groups help shape public policy.

CDR & SSZ
by Jim Choate 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Hi, I am in the process of expanding my business. While this will not effect the stability of the Cypherpunks Distributed Remailer, in fact we hope to make it more stable, it will mean some additional resources being available in the near future. I unfortunately can't say more on this now. However, I can say that 'CyberTects' will most likely cease to exist in a matter of days. It will be subsumed in the creation of a newer and larger business entity (we are currently fighting over the name). This new entity will be taking on the SSZ network & its user base. I will still be directly responsible for the operation and customer satisfaction of SSZ users. There will be more announcements in the near future. However, if you have specific questions (no answer promised) please feel free to send them to me. Jim Choate CyberTects ravage(a)ssz.com

Forwarded message: > From: "William H. Geiger III" <whgiii(a)amaranth.com> > Date: Sun, 25 May 97 11:05:39 -0500 > Subject: SSZ Lag Test > Timing responces from SSZ should probably be averaged about 8-10 times a day for about a week to get a good idea of what to expect. The majority of the time the system is not heavily using the ISDN nor are many users logged in. However, two of my users transmit large blocks of data (one is video and the other is a web-spider) w/o warning and make a significant impact. We also tend to have very spikey web access.
