As an operator of one of the nodes, versus somebody who is just a subscriber, I'll be happy to state that while clearly a waste of anybody with a clues time the submissions are not distruptive to the list. Nor or they spam. They are within the charter of cryptography (and related technologies), civil liberties, and economics. This includes technical pieces, speculative pieces, opinion pieces, etc. I've yet to see a threat. A lot of personal opinion and taunts, but no threat. Got an example? Something like "Kill the President" is not a threat. 'The' list is unfiltered, individual nodes may be. Your claim we can't filter him out is specious; we don't want to filter anyone (do you understand this point yet? Geesh) that's your(!!!) job (I know you don't get this one). To attack somebody through their ISP via false claims of abuse for no reason other than they piss you off is the epitome of chicken shit behaviour. It's also another excellent example of what hypocrites the majority of CACL mouthpieces are. -- ____________________________________________________________________ When I die, I would like to be born again as me.

To: support@nex.net.au Subject: Re: Youth in Asia CC: profrv@nex.com.au Someone who appears to be posting from a nex.net.au address <profrv@nex.com.au> keeps posting large volumes of spam, obcenity, death threats to random people, mail bombs, and so forth to our mailing list. He keeps changing his apparent address, so we have difficulty filtering him out. His postings were originally merely excessive and of doubtful relevance, but have become more and more hostile and harassing.

Youth In Asia Society: At our last monthly meeting, we discussed all of the reasons there are not to KILL THE PRESIDENT. We think it is our duty to inform people of our objection to those who believe it is necessary to KILL THE PRESIDENT. We also object to people who are constantly running around, shouting, incessantly, "KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT!" We think that this is rude. So we would ask you please not to KILL THE PRESIDENT! We don't want you to KILL THE PRESIDENT! We think it is inadvisable for you to KILL THE PRESIDENT! We certainly hope that you won't KILL THE PRESIDENT! We hope that no one you know decides to KILL THE PRESIDENT! We are dedicated in our efforts to convince people not to KILL THE PRESIDENT! We think that we will be successful in our efforts to convince people not to KILL THE PRESIDENT! We don't ask to be thanked for advising people not to KILL THE PRESIDENT! Nor do we expect to be thanked for advising people not to run around incessantly screaming "KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT! KILL THE PRESIDENT!" That's why we post anonymously. We're humble.

This particular message is a copy from the archives of this list,not only was it relevant to a recent thread RE list censorship being taken on by self elected list cops but it belongs to a collection I'm gathering for an article I'm planning. I'm an entertainment journalist.jamesd is a notorious liar having an entire website devoted to that topic.http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/9879/jamesd.html He admits to spending 6 years in Maoist and Trotskyist lying,violent subversive parties,that, I can believe. (He is entertaining though) Please don't contribute to the closure of a once vigorous debating forum.Thanks.
