Just a quick question: someone asked me the other day what the "Four Horsemen of the Infocalypse" were, and I told him

1) Drug Dealers 2) Terrorists 3) Pedophiles 4) Pornographers

Did I get it right, or did I have a synaptic misfire somewhere along the line?

I usually just lump pedophiles and child pornographers together and don't separately mention "normal" pornographers, as there's not much on-line that competes with "Hustler." (The AA case, though, makes conventional pornography a Horseman.) Usually I also cite "money launderers" as the Fourth Horseman. This lumps in tax evaders, etc. But, now that we know what the Four Horsemen are, what's in the Seven Vials? And since the British spelling and pronunciation is "phial," which sounds like "file" (but which has a different root: vial vs. filum), we could call these the "seven files." (Not to be confused with the "seventh veil.") --Tim May -- .......................................................................... Timothy C.
