RE: Press Blitz
I have found from experience, with some success, that the best way to handle press if you to contact local press and present yourself as a local expert on the subject. This gives them a local connection
This seems to be an EXCELLENT idea. I wholeheartedly think that every cypherpunk with a strong knowledge of crypto (I haven't a strong knowledge yet-- still a newbie) contact the local press and offer your services as a local crypto-expert. I think that I probably know 10-15 times more than the general public about crypto, and it also seems that most of the people on this list know about 10-15 times more about crypto than myself. Thus there's a HUGE gulf of knowledge which must be remedied. -- | Sameer Parekh-zane@genesis.MCS.COM-PFA related mail to pfa@genesis.MCS.COM | | Apprentice Philosopher, Writer, Physicist, Healer, Programmer, Lover, more | | "Be God" - Me __ "Specialization is for Insects" - Robert A.
