We've seen the word "hacker" kicked around rather arbitrarily in the press. Are we to conclude that the cypherpunks are a bunch of hackers? I think its time for some cypherpunks spin. How about a logo *and* a press release? The press release would give contacts (email, phone, etc.) so that someone on this list would be contacted by journalists when a crypto story breaks.
If we get enough volunteers, we can fax blanket every newspaper, station, and network in the world.

(<Sigh> hate to suggest this, but someone has to throw the idea out.) We could always threaten to sue for defamation... (You can fill in any one of a number of differences between the canonical cypherpunk vs. hacker/cracker.) Specify the clarification has to include logo. sdw -- Stephen D.
