Looks like Jim has been sentenced to 10 years without the right to correspondence.
To those who do not understand the cultural connotations of this phrase, I will explain. During Stalin's purges around 1937, a lot of people were arrested and nothing could be found out about them -- not even when they were held. Their relatives were later notified that the prisoners were sentenced to 10 years without the right to correspondence.
the parallels between modern america and just about an other totalitarian regime to date are hitting frighteningly close to home. I remember when I was told about the horrors of the nazi and russian children turning their parents in for whatever the state considered to not be proper. now we have D.A.R.E. i doubt such things are mentioned in public schools anymore.
That was an euphemism for being executed.
I would not be surprized if Jim committed a "suicide". With the advance of modern psychology and psychotropic drugs, that could even be a true suicide, done without physical assistance of Jim's captors.
you mean he would be fosterized? ------------------------ Name: amp E-mail: amp@pobox.com Date: 11/22/97 Time: 08:33:20 Visit me at http://www.pobox.com/~amp == -export-a-crypto-system-sig -RSA-3-lines-PERL #!/bin/perl -sp0777i<X+d*lMLa^*lN%0]dsXx++lMlN/dsM0<j]dsj $/=unpack('H*',$_);$_=`echo 16dio\U$k"SK$/SM$n\EsN0p[lN*1 lK[d2%Sa2/d0$^Ixp"|dc`;s/\W//g;$_=pack('H*',/((..)*)$/) == 'Drug Trafficking Offense' is the root passphrase to the Constitution.
