(Don't worry, I'm not including all 500 lines of the forwarded message here!) Could people *please* take care on what they forward to all of us? Kent England either is sending us a message that's stale (action was due two days ago), or he was sending a message to Shabbir and copied both Shabbir and all of us on it, or.... In any case, the barrage of press releases, CPSR alerts, EPIC alerts, and EFF bulletins are beginning to resemble "MAKE.MONEY.FAST" in their volume and shrillness ("Sign this petition! Do it today! Do it now!"). I know many solid, serious Cypherpunks who used to read and post and who now mostly don't. I can't say I blame them. --Tim May -- .......................................................................... Timothy C.
