What months of emails are missing? By my recollection, nearly all postings in the 1995 archive file end February 14, 1995, and resume about July 11, 1995. (there are a very few during this period, though.) I think this simulates a 'data loss'.
Not regarding this Toad source... 1590 Jan 1995 1686 Feb 1995 1610 Mar 1995 1924 Apr 1995 1657 May 1995 1622 Jun 1995 1847 Jul 1995 1583 Aug 1995 2315 Sep 1995 2147 Oct 1995 1685 Nov 1995 1878 Dec 1995
But, very few postings mentioning "Jim Bell", "jimbell@pacifier.com", " ap ", "assassination politics" occur even after July 11, 1995: Just a handful in November and December 1995.
I forget if someone found and posted such a July match.
Those who faked the archive may also have deleted other emails, figuring that if they had only deleted a few, we would eventually learn what those few emails were.
The three from the Yahoo set I posted should be easy for someone to find in another set.
By deleting perhaps thousands, they concealed what was done.
That's possible, except that afaik no one has publicly mentioned finding any of your presumed missing early AP posts in any public or private archive prior to the first known dates posted in these threads. That's what people should look for among their disks and peers.
the public had no mechanism to force that punishment, which was very much needed.
Punishment implies perhaps some physical force as mandatory default course of action. Whereas with a real AP system... meaning one that is accessible to the public masses, and thus obviously reported on in the media... any mark for reeducation that starts accumulating satoshis will be quickly aware of their position on the list... no sane person would at that point refuse to alter their ways or stand down. Thus chance of any such force ever being actually applied is very small, and even if so, in a ratio lower than any statistically relavant property theft, damage, abuse, injury, and or death.
the OKCB instead I wanted to make such incidents totally unnecessary.
Those sort of people probably did not hear about AP yet, else maybe they would have elected somehow participating in AP's more peaceful approach... gone on some speaking tours about AP to change politik started some form of convincing educational system, perhaps book making or confirming news, etc.
