Hey, Jim, don't forget me. You are the only person I have ever specifically UNinvited to one of my parties in over a decade of hosting same. I guess that makes you special.

You're confused. You're describe YOUR reaction to ME, not MY reaction to YOU. And I am unaware of being invited to a "party," and now that I've discovered what a sleazy person Alan Olsen and his merry band are, it is really doubtful that I would have enjoyed what was advertised as a cypherpunks meeting, but which you now claim was a "party." Your level of "honesty" is showing.

"Cypherpunk" is not a trademarked name. I've seen people say on this list (paraphrased) "I'm a cypherpunk, and I oppose unrestricted free speech because we must silence {homophobes}child pornographers|terrorists}" or "I'm hosting a cypherpunks meeting and X will not be permitted to come because I don't like his political views". I like reading this list, but if these views are compatible with being a cypherpunk, then I'm not one. --- Dr. Dimitri Vulis Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps

No one has ever made an announcement on the Cypherpunks list such as the one you "paraphrased." The meetings have always been open to everyone. If the good doctor is referring to my univiting of Jim Bell to a private party held AFTER a Cypherpunk meeting he had better get his facts straight. Jim Bell would have been welcome at the Cypherpunks meeting. He would not have been welcome at my party, though, because of his intemperate bad manners, NOT his politics.
