-Caveat Lector-

unfortunately this list is a bit of a playground for
retired CIA etc who are trying to make a bit of
pocketmoney - so the key wouldn't be safe

also - I'm pretty sure the government/NSA has
the ability to strip down PGP by now - its the
first thing i would ask ET for - computer capacity like
that.

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please!  These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
