There may be something in the view that there are enough laws already on the books that if government agents want to give you grief, they can find a way. Adding another one is minor compared with preventing crypto restrictions via executive order. (How many laws did you break today? Since I drove a car, I broke at least one. With respect for the law gone, the law has only fear, and that's a function of enforcement, and subject to economic realities.) YMMV. Of course, getting rid of these kinds of laws is a project which is long overdue starting and not adding new ones would be a good start. (But that's another rant.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Frantz | God could make the world | Periwinkle -- Consulting (408)356-8506 | in six days because he did | 16345 Englewood Ave. frantz@netcom.com | not have an installed base.| Los Gatos, CA 95032, USA
