The first reply came 3 days later.
These groups are important to me. It is why I posted them there. I use PGP extensively in my usenet postings, and I am not the only one in those groups that posts with PGP. Yes, suffice to say, I endorse this letter. I dream of a day when we do not have to deal with this issue, yet it is something that affects any one who uses the program. All that was really asked was not to go to the meeting with the D.A., and make a protest. MOST CYPHERPUNKS I KNOW OF COULDN'T HAVE MADE IT ANYWAY, THIS TIME, BECAUSE THE STAKES IN THE REMAILER GAME ARE HIGH, AND WITHIN A MONTH OR TWO, THERE WILL BE SYSTEM SO THAT WE CAN GET SOME MONEY TO EAT WITH AND BUY EQUIPMENT. But on the user level, I do my best to TEACH GOOD FUNDAMENTAL COMPUTER SAFETY. Rumors are no good for this. There was PRZ's letter to us, and Dubois's letter to alt.security pgp. Those are facts. Those I can teach with, and so can even a one month PGP Cypherpunk Novice. So can you. Now, the first reply,
From my present calcuations approximately 14 percent of my mail for the last two days has been form Carol Ann, this is not a small feat co9nsidering the amount of mailing I usually recieve. Perhaps if Carol would post a well thoguth out and written article on what happened, instead of posting a thousand little "me toos" and "told ya so's" and such, this wouldn't be so annoying. rough estimate of mine is that she is repsonsible for 30 some percent of the traffic on cypherpunks at this time.
Worse par tis that because i recieve my mail thru a SLIP lin which is admittedly slow, I still have to recieve all noise messages thru my SLIP link before procmail can trash/delete/redirect them. SO now taking this into consideration, it seems that Carol Ann is responsible for more thruput on my SLIP link the myself, since mostly I recive mail thru it. It's a close call, me or Carol, that's counting in FTPs and WWW browing. I mean maybe I hsould charge her money now 8) i want to know everything http://www.mcs.com/~nesta/home.html i want to be everywhere Nesta's Home Page i want to fuck everyone in the world & i want to do something that matters /-/ a s t e zine
