Ok, How about maybe one of these. Obscure, but kinda fun.
- 1984 + 10 - Orwell missed by 10. - Big Brother has arrived! - So what's 10 years between Orwell and a few friends?

It's interesting that you've listed these slogans. Someone (I think it was Hunter S. Thompson) once pointed out that 1984 was a typing error, and that the original title was "1994". Orwell was behind schedule when he wrote "1984", and only realized his mistake around the time he submitted the manuscript. He tried to get it changed, but (because of his timing) failed. Interestingly enough, if I am correct in assuming H.S.T. was the origin of that bit of imformation, then I think (again, unsurely) that it originated from his articles about his arrest by some Colorado D.A.s on drug charges. Fortunately, because of the incompetence of the police and D.A.s involved (especially in illegal searching), it was thrown out of course. But that's another thread entirely...;-> Anyway back to the T-shirt ideas. One ideas came to me: 1994: 1984 was a typo. Below this captions would show George Orwell typing away at his typewriter, while behind him, some shadowy figures (representing Government Agencies or the Dictator of your choice) would hover threatening around his shoulders, or lurk in the background.... Now if the Cryptography T-Shirt idea gets realized, I wouldn't mind getting hold of one. One problem I have: how do I get hold of it? Does anyone know what the costs (and timing) of mailing small objects from the U.S. to Australia? Or would it be a better idea to email the GIF/bitmap/etc., of the design over here, and I'll send some cash in return? Eagerly awaiting .....
