The Register - eBay to Fees: come and get what you want (fwd)
Another example of why CACL [1] approaches don't work. Claims that business are not as bad as the government are bogus because they fail to realize that both are activities of people and people are the cause of problem. The evils of man are not a function of government, business, or whatever. They rest solely on the human mind. http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/32936.html [1] Crypto-Anarchy, Anarcho-Capitalist, Capitalist, Libertarian And note the 'big C' on capitalist....the distinction is whether the commerce is the means or the ends. Big C capitalism it is the ends and human lifetimes are the means. -- -- God exists because mathematics is consistent, and the Devil exist because we can't prove it. Andre Weil, in H.

And this is still the best you can come up with. You'll fit right in with Tim, Declan, and the rest of the CACL crowd. -- -- God exists because mathematics is consistent, and the Devil exist because we can't prove it. Andre Weil, in H.

<slashdot> You're new here, aren't you? </slashdot> That can of worms has been opened many times before. Think of it as nature teaching you to learn about filter rules.

Not at all, I just never came across this discussion. I have pretty strong filters on cypherpunks, letting through only new threads and replies to threads that interest me. Now Choate is also a reason to delete a new thread.
