Am another cypherpunks mailinglist at cyperpunk@dev.null. You go there, chop chop. You not talk about Misty here anymore, OK? We am tired hering about Misty and your fees.

Tim, was that you writing, or was that TotoMonger forging you again? I agree that there are problems with Misty, but it's no more annoying than some of the other flaming on the list, and certainly less so that Dmitri Vulis and his tentacles.
My ire at "Nobuki Nakatuji" comes less from his broken English (which is no doubt several orders of magnitude better than my broken Japanese) than from his repeated trollings of the list to send him money for more details. Also, he has never engaged in any discussion, broken English or not. I have begun to surmise a 'bot is at work. He or she or it may not even be Japanese, of course. The hotmail account is well-known for throwaway accounts (even remailers). (Searches on his name reveal no Usenet posts under his name, "Nobuki Nakatuji," and no presence on the Web save for Cypherpunks archives. The "hotmail" domain name, and the "bd1011" adds to my suspicion that this person is trolling. If people send him money, all the better for him. I say burn him.) --Tim May The Feds have shown their hand: they want a ban on domestic cryptography ---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---- Timothy C.
