Wow! The cypherpunks are a fucking business? Am I a stock holder? Ha-fucking-ha! Is this line supposed to convince us that this was a targeted e-mail and *not* spam! <LOL> Normally I just trash this stuff, but I really got a kick out of that. I hope we can get to top 100 by the fall '98 <bg>
Just don't smurf them. I'm sure their service providor wouldn't like that, and it isn't nice. You should just hit the delete key, and respect their right to freely express themselves. p.s. - Thanks for the little white pills, Dr. Vulis. I'm feeling much happier now.

You are very welcome. On the subject of junk e-mail: I've made an effort to place myself and certain other addresses on the spammers' removal lists. This may be why I get a lot less junk e-mail that apparently most people who post to Usenet. These days, I get about 2 or 3 junk e-mails; they are usually sent from ibm.net or worldcom.att.net or erathlink or netcom; never aol or juno (although they may be forged to look this way). I typically forward them with the headers and without any comments to abuse@originating ISP, and am typically notified within a day that the account has been terminated. (Unlike the assholes from news.admin.net-abuse.* I have better things to do than to keep track of my kill count, but it must be close to a hundred since I started doing this last summer.) --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
