My recollection is that I published Part 1 on the Digitaliberty mailing list, maintained by Bill Frezza, on FIDOnet. At that time, I was unaware of the existence of the Cypherpunks email list. At some point, somebody saw my essay, and posted a reference (or a copy) to Cypherpunks, I believe. And at some point, I was invited to the Cypherpunks list. But over 24 years later, I don't recall the exact timing. I know, I believe, that Part 2 wasn't written until later in July, 1995.

I found the site listed in the title, figuring that it would contain the information I sought. https://mailing-list-archive.cryptoanarchy.wiki/ That looked promising. I looked at: mailing-list-archive.cryptoanarchy.wiki which, promisingly, showed the years 1992-1999. So far, so good, Since the information I sought should have appeared in 1995, I clicked on that year, Weirdly, the information for March and April and June was not present, Huh? This was, pretty much, the time frame I needed to search,

Well, I looked at the file http://cypherpunks.venona.com/raw/cyp-1995.txt
using my browser. First, I looked for "Assassination Politics", and found two (yes, TWO) references,I then looked for "AP" and found nothing,
What is going on?
