perry, of course, is a dysfunctional human "cipher" himself, who couldn't be civil if he was at a tea party of grandmothers. yes, in 15 minutes he would end up screaming and mooning them all because they hadn't heard of Netscape or Chaum or something. what a prick. so he wants to lobby congress and write some code?? well perry, good for you. you just go off on your little excursion. let us know how you are doing. send some postcards to Blacknet, OK??? as for TCM and his invest-in-stocks-and-evade-taxes shtick, it's starting to bore me too. frankly I think that both TCM and PM should take a long, long vacation from the cypherpunks list and go take a cruise together. yes, help patch up that relationship that is so strained lately. it hurts us all to see two grown men fighting each other. make love, not war!!! hehehehe

Unfortunatly, this is a wetware being; I did have the pleasure of meeting him at a speech given by him and Dave Mandl a few years back. He did an excellent speech, and was very informative. At the time, being a neophite cypherpunk, I found the info enlightening. But alas, his human interaction skills rate below what one would find in a kindergarten. He's not a bad guy really, just vicious when it comes to manners. At times, he takes the net.cop attitude. And we all know how well that works in an anarchistic organization/group/entity such as the cypherpunks. He's a great cryptographer/programmer too from what I've seen. At times, I do respect his skills, but his attitudes belong in /dev/nul. =================================================================93======= + ^ + | Ray Arachelian | Amerika: The land of the Freeh. | \-_ _-/ | \|/ |sunder@escape.com| Where day by day, yet another | \ -- / | <--+-->| | Constitutional right vanishes. |6 _\- -/_ 6| /|\ | Just Say | |----\ /---- | + v + | "No" to the NSA!| Jail the censor, not the author!| \/ | =======/---------------------------------------------------------VI------/ / I watched and weeped as the Exon bill passed, knowing that yet / / another freedom vanished before my eyes.
