This is always happening to me. I can never follow the discussions as I only recieve the quoted materials. Is there some other list I should be signed up for as well?
You can subscribe to Jim Choate's node, which is unmoderated and unfiltered. Go to http://einstein.ssz.com/cdr for info. Be warned: If you've been reading the cypherpunks feed from a filtered list (I don't know if Minder is filtered or not), you'll be in for an unpleasant surprise. There aren't _that_ many out-and-out idiots posting to the list, but what their posts lack in quality they more that make up with quantity. And there are lots of ass-wipes who sign up cypherpunks nodes for all sorts of spam lists. Before you subscribe to an unfiltered list, compare the inet-one cpunks archive (http://www.inet-one.com/cypherpunks/) to the archive I maintain (http://archives.abditum.com/cypherpunks/). inet-one archives an unfiltered feed. I archive LNE's filtered feed. (Note: as of ten seconds ago, inet-one's site is temporarily down. It's been a while since I visited, so I don't know how temporary "temporarily" is.)
