Thank you for the preliminary (<2 hrs) response to the posting. I have
not gotten a "that's a bad idea" letter yet of the 7 replies so I will
assume this is a "Good Thing" tm.
In the interest of the mailing list volume I ask that you hold your
information for now. I will certainly accept "it's a bad idea" mail.
I will put together a format for replies and post it to the list and
anyone interested can fill in the blanks and mail it back to me. I'm
going to take my time and try to think of any useful information so
we only have to do this once (good for you and me). Look here for the
survey and email it back if you want to be included in a list of c'punks.
Also, please let me know if there is anything you DON'T want included
and I will honor that as well.
Thanks for your comments, I'll keep the list informed of what I know
when it becomes available.
Jim

This is certainly an interesting idea, but then I have to wonder if I
should put my name into it, as I am a college student, 23-year old
cumputer geek (not nerd :-), ex-navy, gay, politically active, subversive.
I'd hate to be a shining example of what the establishment fears...

Here is my vote for "its a bad idea". Cypherpunks is NOT an
organization. Leave the organizational fronting to people like CPSR
and EFF who have good PR people and know what they are doing. They've
done a great job thus far.
If we want to answer blowhards who claim we are a small number of
nuts, we can just show off the Time magazine poll.
