Re: NOTAM: GA prohibited w/in 10 miles of nuke plants
Sure. Don't go for the hard-headed containment structure, knock out the soft-shelled control facility which regulates cooling pumps. The reactor will do the rest just as effectively as planes weakened the towers so they would self-destruct. It is truely strange that the Pentagon was hit rather than the soft-shells downtown. Probably a feint or a blunder by a pilot nearly insane. Nuclear power plants are likely a feint as well, with so many soft-shells ready to eat -- refineries, airports, seaports, suspension bridges, most domestic military bases, universities, national labs, mega-malls, on and on, look around you where all the gov-terrified people bunch for safety in numbers. The experts here predict a mid-West target just to freak the true interior homeland which everyone believes they can retreat to. Draw a half dozen vectors connecting the publicized targets and see where they intersect. That point won't be far from Cheyenne Mountain, not the hardened bunker but its vulnerable support system -- most of which remains identifiable on the Net because it is not military or government, you know, the collaterals.

With its famous balance of power, the U.S. Constitution divides federal power among the three branches of government, while the Bill of Rights provides other checks all of which have served the country well. With new threats have come new protections. In the nineteenth century, corporations grew and multiplied, and some amassed the kind of power we had always sought to limit in our own government. Anti-trust laws were passed to guarantee that commercial power would be distributed among competing companies in every sector of business. These protections have also served us well. But now a new threat has arisen that may be less obvious but more dangerous. While computer and communication technology have enhanced our lives in many ways, they have also caused fundamental changes that make protecting ourselves from the concentration of power more difficult--in part because these technologies have made it feasible to build organizations that are larger and more globally-distributed than ever before. The result: we need to be more alert to potential abuses of power. The fact that everything is interconnected makes it possible to concentrate power in a new way. A business that holds a monopoly in one area may be able to use its influence to extend its monopoly in entirely new ways. This is what is happening as Microsoft attempts to extend its monopoly over personal computer operating systems into the Internet world. Microsoft .NET (pronounced dot net') is a far-reaching project to channel the personal information of all customers who browse, shop, and congregate on the Internet into Microsoft or Microsoft-controlled companies. It is made up of components: Passport establishes an individual's identity on the Internet .NET My Services collects various pieces of private information--including .NET Contacts, .NET Location, .NET Inbox, .NET Documents, .NET Devices, and .NET Wallet. The control over computer software that Microsoft has achieved through its dominance of operating systems has limited competition and innovation throughout the computer field. Through .NET, it is attempting to exert the same control over all Internet commerce. Just as kings got to grant or deny royal charters to businesses, the Redmond giant, if successful, may be able to say who can do business on the Net and who can't. But there is another and more immediate problem with .NET--something that could evolve from a problem to a national crisis even if Microsoft is well behaved or well regulated in the use of its new powers. That is the problem of security, as opposed to privacy. What is the difference? If Microsoft knows everything about everyone--and the information being collected by Passport and My Services make that look quite likely--the company could still be constrained in how it uses that information by laws or corporate privacy policies. That presupposes, however, that Microsoft is actually in control of the information it has collected. Microsofts security record is nothing to brag about. Windows is the most widely used yet one of the least secure operating systems around. Microsoft programs have shown themselves vulnerable to worms, viruses, and break-ins, on Microsoft's own computers and on everybody else's. The Melissa virus spread through Microsoft's word processing and e-mail programs, sending itself to the first 50 people in each of the infected machine's address lists. A year later the ILOVEYOU virus infected the Web through a different part of Microsofts e-mail package. More recently Microsoft's own internal systems were hacked, and the intruders spent over a month accessing system source code, likened to Microsoft's crown jewels, before their unlawful entry was discovered. Why should Passport be any different? Early security analyses show that compromises made for the sake of universal availability make Passport less secure than it might have been, less secure than it should be, and perhaps just plain insecure. The My Services databases will be a particularly ripe target for hackers. (Since all users of Microsoft's free Hotmail service have Passports, many unknowingly, there are already 160 million Passpo
NOTAM: GA prohibited w/in 10 miles of nuke plants
Copied from a friend, generally reliable. NOTAMs are eventually posted to a few publicly available sites: !FDC 1/1763 FDC PART 1 OF 6 TEMPORARY FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS OVER NUCLEAR SITES.

(It was wondered what a plane crash would do, so a F-4 Phantom II was rammed into a containment wall at 600+ MPH, it penetrated 2.5 inches. (Its a 6 foot wall). G. Insane restrictions. Bullyboys in uniforms pushing around, people held illegally. Sounds like the feds are treating the current "credible threat" as broad and shutting down all options.

Heat freon up enough, it turns into phosgene gas (as it breaks down into simpler components). The CBR types call that Blood Agent.

I did my weekly weigh-in and when I saw that smaller number swing around that scale, I didnÿ92t know whether to faint, scream, or cry. So I danced. Just imagine, a large woman with crazy hair, laughing and dancing naked in her living room with her scale. I gave that scale a big sloppy-wet kiss!!... I lost 8 pounds in one week! I have lost a total of 53 pounds in exactly 3 months. I KNOW what made the difference this last 3 monthsÿ85 My hubby and I bought a product that was recommended by an affiliate.

It all depends on your view of intellectual property. I license photos to news organizations and other publishers. I've licensed about $250 worth of them in three (admittedly relatively low-value each) transactions today. If forced by the government to license my photos at a certain rate, in principle I wouldn't be thrilled. In practice it would depend on the per-photo rate, but somehow I think I can do a better job of negotiating on my own. Also I would not expect to be able to influence the Copyright Office to see things my way in the first place. -Declan

Re: Transperancy Spray?
> Or... is there something that REACTS to freon in an interesting way...? Freon (chloro difloromethane) is pretty inert stuff, as far as I know. According to the MSDS (Dupont: http://www.dupont.com/msds/40_37_2008fr.html), it is stable but "Incompatible with alkali or alkaline earth metals--powdered Al, Zn, Be, etc." I'm not sure what "incompatible" means here. Finely powdered Al can be pretty reactive stuff, with many things besides freon. It's a pretty good organic solvent I would think, so you could easily find some dye which would disolve in it. If it disolves easily in gasoline (or tricholormethane, even better), it would probably also disolve easily in freon, so you could test some things. In fact, a smudge of light grease in the right shape might be able to indicate that freon has been used. Maybe we should just stick with email? Anyway, how often do you think this stuff is actually used in real life? Interesting to talk about, but hardly relevant to anything, I would think. Btw, are we sure that this spray is just plain old freon? I looked around and I couldn't see any hints about the composition of this spray.

Just mark your letters with the stuff and look for the integrity of the mark at the other end. The USPS won't be checking mail this way anytime soon.

The Password Spy
Boy, the interesting things you turn up when doing a reasonably unrelated search. The first hit for googling "spy serial connection" is: http://www.passwordspy.com/ Think the fibbies used this on that gangsta guy? ;) BTW, I'm looking for a convenient method to intercept data to/from a serial port. Got a piece of hardware I'm trying to reverse- engineer, and I'd rather avoid writing a custom serial driver. Any ideas? -- Roy M. Silvernail Proprietor, scytale.com [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The government grants people who've created stories, songs, and other works certain rights in those works. The set of rights that they've been granted has changed dramatically over time, usually driven by new technology, such as the printing press, the radio, or the internet. Compulsory licensing of something that the government gave you is very different from compulsory licensing of something you created. Further, compulsory licensing of a non-excludable good (such as TV broadcasts) is very different from compulsory licensing of an excludable good, such as your computer. -- "It is seldom that liberty of any kind is lost all at once." -Hume

measley, -I- am an idiot? Wow, that sorta hurts. I am an idiot because I believe to a great degree that the USA in danger thats nice. Thanks for making me feel at home. Cant effectively rebut my statement, so you insult me, and not even creatively! which causes more hurt feelings. I really do feel hurt, its weird. Maybe its because I am normally sleeping right now and I feel out of it, or perhaps I am excited that my beloved Knicks are going to break Jordans ass open tonight... right there at MSG. Perhaps I am extra touchy because I havent been laid since saturday, and thats what I consider a dry spell. Well, you are an insensitive, uncreative jerk. fascism- A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism. b.

Napster Wants License to License By Michael Stroud 2:00 a.m. Oct. 30, 2001 PST LOS ANGELES -- Napster CEO Konrad Hilbers says the government should consider compulsory standards requiring music labels to license music at a fair price if they don't close deals with Napster and other independent distributors. "Like any other business person, I'm hesitant to bring government in," Hilbers said. "But government has an obligation to set standards. If there's no agreement, the government should consider compulsory licensing." http://wired.com/news/mp3/0,1285,47977,00.html Compulsory licensing = theft, buddy.

Like we have "rule of law" now, with Shrub telling us to pass laws he wants, or have them installed anyway via executive order. I've long wavered over whether to fight these things or encourage them, as the encouraging may prove to be the more useful (i.e., be sufficiently infuriating to wake some sheeple up). I think Shrub and Friends have provided the perfect vehicle to help us return the US to it's *Constitutional* roots. We just give them *everything* they ask for, then sit back and see how long it takes for some "recently awoken" to provide a little high velocity lead poisoning party - bringing his beer-gut buddies of course (revolution wouldn't be any fun without beer and bullets, right?). Long live the Reich! Hail whoeverthefuck! -- Yours, J.A. Terranson [EMAIL PROTECTED] If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place...
Ashcroft prepares for martial law
Unlike America's Most Wanted the new dire but vague warnings are unlikely to cause citizens to uncover a massive new plot, I doubt they would have uncovered the 911 even if predictions of impending trouble have been announced a few days prior. Since Congress gave him virtually everything he asked for the next step is martial law, though how that might help uncover any new plots is beyond me.
