Cypherpunks as lobbying/propagandizing group

From: "Jim Sewell" <jims@central.keywest.mpgn.com>

I agree with Julie that we need some P.R. for this. I also think we should do it by writing and getting the word out.

However, I think we should form a small informal group of people seriously interested in putting together a well thought out document that is factual and without emotional flair that a member of the press would respect, could understand, and might pass on to the public.

I want to propose that this small group develop a document to the best of their abilities, refine it, and when they think it is ready post it to the list for a "final lookover".

[etc., etc.]

Let me know what you think,

I think this is a very bad idea and not the purpose of the cypherpunks list. --Dave.
