Hey, I think I saw a bald eagle roosting up in that tree. You know, the one next to those buried Indian artifacts, right next to those rusting metal drums I got from Russel Bliss. --John

Hey...can some clever Cypherpunk think of a nice poison pill for ED? Theoretically, something like that is possible, but my only ideas aren't so hot.

Interesting. it occurs to me also that a Tim May-based approach may work: Lay out landmines and boobytraps all over the place, and then forget where you put 'em. No one's really going to want to drive a bulldozer over that! -TD From: Trei, Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tyler Durden [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Posion Pill for ED?
