The Big RSA Patent Expiration Composite Party A fundraiser for the Cryptorights Foundation (http://www.cryptorights.org/) September 21, 2000 8PM-2AM
This is going to be great... In theory, at least, one could start in Boston after work at 5:30 EDT on Wednesday, talk through your teeth while munching canapes over evening cocktails at the Hahvid Club dahling, jump on a plane, fly west all night, stay up all the next day, and party all Thursday night in San Francisco. Ending up, of course, on the floor somewhere with your feet in the sky and, um, Xes in your eyes, some 30(?) hours later at 2AM PDT. Riiight. Of course, there *are* people threatening to come to Boston from Europe on the 20th, and, having done something that crazy already, *they* might be up for something as biochronically challenging, but not me, nooooo.... Cheers, RAH A tired old poop who's not at all jealous that *their* party's gonna be waay cooler than *our* party, but who still can't help but observe that *we're* raising money for a *sponsor* of *their* party, either. It was ever thus, though, and all for very good causes on both accounts, certainly. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> iQEVAwUBOcE3M8UCGwxmWcHhAQG32ggApqGPt88qanGARME8NUQwvxJ8I6VUIuur 6EeN2VLmWbGb33i2BR4isEdtesOCNcP70mPJI00+iC/zn7NL9ppy6RGt21NXKa8h WUyGG42sVaDQD6LEGdVk/W9/Jw7ZhwUe9CDo/6j9sH0vUfIQht+WCGazi5fTn7qw wWNbtwc3D6HEUGLeP90gYC+e2Ihq2uTFpWoSl52BH/n4iyELt0mz66SmJRUIEqgm ++Q2Za8FrzfdJDKaZgUb3RrdEbkLeo2HrCFGYQPj5NiT5Se5jjHfI/OZOjRBf31M qO6nBoR9iPW3+q/H5VuJ7MOVfbRKrtw8J4XDyxG7/WGcFjICcWRLSw== =r+z8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ----------------- R.
