	What's the big deal here? I gave netscape my work number, my
work address when I downloaded the us netscape. Give them some number
that isn't private.

	sheesh. i criticized netscape for not doing the
export-controlled download in the past, and now they are doing
it. they deserve to be congratulated. They're doing good things for
the state of security on the net.
