I caught this in EDUPAGE -- sorry if you've seen this before (and sorry again about posting by mistake yet again to the list, and sorry about wasting so damn much bandwidth apologizing)...
From EDUPAGE:
SUPPORT FOR THE CLIPPER CHIP Yale computer scientist David Gelernter urges support for the Clipper Chip encryption technology and for the Administration's Digital Telephony and Communications Privacy Improvement Act, the heart of which is to give law-enforcement agents a continued ability to conduct wiretapping with court orders. "Nothing would do us more good as a nation than to reassert our right to tell the experts to get lost. I am a `technical expert,' but don't take my words on this bill as an expert. I was seriously and permanently injured by a terrorist letter bomb last year, but don't take my word as a special pleader either. Take my word because common sense demands that wiretapping be preserved." (New York Times 5/8/94 Sec.4, p.17) -- dat@ebt.com (David Taffs)
