Does this mean that OBL is gay, too (like Bert)? That might explain a few things....

Right now, the two appear to be inseparable -- at least on ubiquitous posters carried by pro-Taliban protesters. Wired News has confirmed with Reuters that the Bert image is in the original photo. -Declan On Wed, Oct 10, 2001 at 08:46:35AM -0700, Xeni Jardin wrote:

A small point of netiquette: Xeni, you've been sending posts to some "talk@strangelove.cc" list, and copying cypherpunks. When cypherpunks subscribers reply to all, they get this message: <talk@strangelove.cc>: Sorry, only subscribers may post. Perhaps it would be possible to send two messages, one to "talk" and the other to cypherpunks, instead of copying cypherpunkes on messages sent to a private list? -Declan

My bad. Extremely sorry about that. Won't happen again.

I always thought Oscar was one of those WTO black bloc types... or maybe a militant Green, living in a trash can like that... And their stupid "brought to you by the number N" messages must have been a low-baud *numbers station*.
