"You rang, Sir?" Jim Bell jimbell@pacifier.com
It looks like Jim Bell is arranging a contract on Mr. Wallace (apparently the operator of "abusebot@savetrees.com," and other obnoxious spambots assocated with Cyberpromo). At 7:06 PM -0800 10/14/96, jim bell wrote:

Careful, Jim, you are coming _very_ close to crossing the line. You appear to be volunteering to have Mr. Wallace (and perhaps his family?) killed. Arguing theoretical implications of what you call "AP" is substantially different from saying "You rang?" when your frequent posts about AP being the solution make it clear you are referring to AP here. I'm not a lawyer, but this is getting real close to the line. I doubt many DAs would take it seriously, but I rather expect Mr. Wallace of savetrees.com might discover this message and draw the reasonable inference that his life is being threatened. --Tim May "The government announcement is disastrous," said Jim Bidzos,.."We warned IBM that the National Security Agency would try to twist their technology."

I see nothing in any of these messages about the murder or even slightest physical attack against Mr. Wallace. Instead "putting some teeth into this" looks like it implies taking further actions on collecting a debt. I suppose one extreme way of interpreting that would be to kill the debtor. ________________________________ [ Bruce M. - Feist Systems, Inc. ] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ "We don't want to get our butts kicked by a bunch of long-haired 26-year-olds with earrings." -- General John Sheehan on their reasons for InfoWar involvement

Rule #4 via Joey the Hit Man: Never kill someone who owes you money. You gotta find some way to convince them to pay it back, i.e., "hey, Mr. Zzyzx, nice looking kids you got there. Too bad if something happened to one of 'em."
