I think, Declan, that deleting the author's name is a Big Problem.
You have essentially made this author "Anonymous."
Does knowing the name of who wrote a piece really have any bearing on the consistency of it? Is so then there would be a clear indication that there is a fundamental flaw with anonymous remailers and their place in society. ____________________________________________________________________ | | | Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make | | violent revolution inevitable. | | | | John F.

Of course there is bearing on who the author is. This is the foundation behind reputation capital. The existance of reputation capital does not present any flaws on anonymous remailers, their documents are just devoid of any such capital (positive or negative). Do we really need a rehash of this? - -- - --------------------------------------------------------------- William H.
