I don't know about Declan, but I don't dis no negroes! Black is beautiful, singed or not. (Cypherpunks postings in Spanish or Latin? I guess if it helps the cause of elitism, in further limiting the number of readers able to understand postings, it's in a good cause. Sorry for not writing this in German, but it's been too many years.) --Tim "The government announcement is disastrous," said Jim Bidzos,.."We warned IBM that the National Security Agency would try to twist their technology."

I'll have to reread John's piece tomorrow (I'm on vacation right now), but it doesn't surprise me. He and I have been arguing about this topic via email for the last week or so. He takes the traditional liberal view of government regulation of drugs is necessary; I take the more libertarian one. The Cato Institute, BTW, will be putting together a roundtable on this soon. -Declan On Mon, 28 Oct 1996, John Young wrote:
